Intellectual property

Contact: Domenico Colella

Our experience in the intellectual and industrial property field includes all aspects of the creation, acquisition, use, development and protection of trademarks, brands, patents, industrial models and copyright.

Thanks to the great importance of trademarks and copyright in the Media sector and given our focus on this industry, our intellectual and industrial property team, over the years, has dealt with traditional IP issues as well as with the new IP questions posed by technological developments and platform convergence.

Here are some examples:

registration of national, international, and EU trademarks
trademark license contracts, co-branding agreements, franchising, etc.
establishment of security rights on trademarks
domain names
legal and arbitration proceedings relating to copyright and trademark ownership and license
use, protection and exploitation of databases
TV Cinema productions
musical works’ synchronization and reproduction rights (on TV platform, Internet, etc.), negotiations with SIAE (Società Italiana degli Autori ed Editori Italian Society of Authors and Publishers)
