The Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) on Monday said the Philippines has signed up for a treaty that will make design protection easier, faster and more affordable both locally and abroad.
The government’s intellectual property (IP) rights body said that the Philippines, along with other member states of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), signed the Riyadh Design Law Treaty last Nov. 22 in Geneva, Switzerland.
“Together with WIPO Member States, the Philippines shares the common goal that designers should be able to protect their work more easily and be given the bigger opportunity to scale up globally,” IPOPHL director general Rowel Barba said in a statement.
