What are you doing, Janice?
I am reading the book on patent and I think it will be helpful for my work.
Patent? Are you also learning something about patent?
Yep! I heard that your company is registering a new trademark.
You are well-informed. Can you tell me something about the Patent Law in our country from the book you are reading?
I just read this in the whole afternoon. Let me show you.
So coincidental. Actually we can exchange some information on this problem.
The purpose of the law is to protect and encourage inventions and to promote the development of science and technology. The law came into effect in 1984, and it consists of 8 chapters with 69 articles.
Is there any provision on applying for the patent for foreign company?
Foreign companies should appoint a patent agency, which is designated by our government to act as his patent agent. This task is usually taken by the Patent Agent Department.
How long is the duration of patent right for an invention according to your Patent Law?
