Good news for Guwahati. The premier north eastern city gets an Intellectual Property Facilitation Centre. Courtesy encourage innovation and help protect intellectual property rights.
According to FICCI, jointly set up with ministry of micro, small and medium enterprises, the centre would facilitate the MSMEs to identify, protect, maintain, enforce and commercialise intellectual property by helping innovators address their IPR requirements.
Further, it would provide services like patent searches, patent drafting, patent prosecution, facilitation in commercialisation of inventions, trademark prosecution matters etc.
Notably, majority of the countries have a strong IPR regime to power their industries. It is for the MSMEs in India to reap the benefits accruing from IPR system and survive the competition at international market.
