Trademark Watch – Monitoring Marks Around the World

Overview on Trademark Watch

A company's branding is a crucial asset. As brands grow, so does the risk of imitation due to their popularity and social media influence. Successful business goes beyond just registering and marketing a brand. Protection against entities that could damage its reputation is vital. Monitoring new trademark applications that could be confusingly similar is key to strengthening a brand. The first step towards protecting your business’s IP rights is to register your business name as trademarks. Aligned with Accolade's mission to meet clients' IP needs, we offer Trademark Watch services.

Our tool covers watch results in 185 jurisdictions worldwide.

What is Trademark Watch?

Trademark Watch is a service that monitors trademarks in different jurisdictions. It allows any identical or similar trademarks owned by third parties to be identified. It helps locate identical or similar marks that are pending in specific jurisdictions.

#WIPODay #WorldIntellectualPropertyDay

In the year 2000, the member states of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) designated April 26th, the day when the WIPO Convention took effect in 1970, as World Intellectual Property Day.

Since its inception, World IP Day has served as an annual, exceptional platform for people worldwide to reflect on how intellectual property fuels the prosperity of music and the arts, as well as propels technological advancements that mold our world.

Winners of“Hong Kong Top Brand”,“Hong Kong Premier Brand”,“Hong Kong Top Service Brand”and“Hong Kong Premier Service Brand”could apply for Hong Kong Top Brand Mark Scheme by product/service categories and will, if meeting the assessment requirements, be conferred a licence to use the“Top Mark”for business promotion in relation to the brand, the winning company or certified product/service categories.

Organisations authorised to use the Mark shall ensure that it is used in compliance with the regulation and requirements laid down in the “Hong Kong Top Brand Mark Regulations” and “Terms and Conditions” of the Awards, and it shall endeavour to ensure Top Mark is used according to“Identity Guide for Hong Kong Top Brand Mark”.

The“Top Mark”is designed under the supervision of Mr Kan Tai Keung.

The Ordinary Mark is in primary blue and red, while the Premier Mark is gold in colour to signify prestige and superiority.
