We are pleased to announce that the first bulletin from the new IP Office of Cape Verde was just released.

This is the first big step for the new IP Office (IPICV – Instituto da Propriedade Intelectual de Cabo Verde), which will soon be installed as a separate Office from the ministry of commerce and industry, and focused only on Trademark, Patent and Author’s Rights registrations.

This new bulletin comprises the publication of the first 1.200 trademark applications that were filed in the country, along with several copyright registrations for artistic and literary art work.
