Singapore offers one of the best places in Asia for the commercialisation of ideas and innovations because we take intellectual property protection very seriously. Singapore is the one-stop center in Asia for businesses to manage their intellectual property (IP) assets. From IP Creation, Protection to Exploitation, Singapore adds value across the entire spectrum of IP activities.
Transforming your Ideas into Intellectual Property
Companies are able to leverage on Singapore's strong IP protection & legal infrastructure. The World Economic Forum (WEF), the Institute for Management Development (IMD) and the Political Economic Risk Consultancy (PERC) have all ranked Singapore top in Asia for IP protection for 3 years in a row (from 2002 - 2004).
Companies can file for IP protection globally from Singapore as it is a signatory to major IP conventions and treaties, such as the Patent Cooperation Treaty, Paris Convention, Berne Convention, Madrid Protocol, Budapest Treaty, Agreement on Trade-related aspects of IP rights, and World Intellectual Property Organisation.
Within Singapore, there are institutions such as the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore, Singapore International Arbitration Centre, Composers & Authors Society of Singapore, Recording Industry Association (Singapore), and Singapore Mediation Centre.
Ideal location for IP Commercialization
Companies who locate their IP base in Singapore are able to everage upon Singapore's vibrant financial sector; strong technological and manufacturing capabilities; and global connectivity to realise the maximum value of their IP. Companies are able to leverage on the vibrant venture capital (VC) industry, of over 150 VC firms managing over S$16 billion, to raise financing to commercialize their IP.
Companies can also benefit significantly from Singapore's network of trade agreements and linkages, such as the Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) and the Avoidance of Double Taxation Agreements (DTAs). With one of the most comprehensive trade agreements network in Asia, Singapore is an ideal location for businesses to explore and seek out new IP and business opportunities in the diverse regional market of Asia.
Abundant expertise is provided to ensure you have all the services you need for new patents, copyrights and trademarks - IP litigation, technology intelligence, and IP valuation. Come to Singapore now, we ensure you can create, own and exploit your own idea!
