🔴 Decsription: What is Industrial Property? And what is the difference between Intellectual Property and Industrial Property? Where is it defined? In the end, I will tell you, why this distinction is important and what important treaties give you what advantages.
I am Rolf Claessen, patent attorney and patent attorney with Michalski · Hüttermann & Partner, and I publish a new video about patents, trademarks and designs every Thursday, and in this video I will tell you, what Industrial Property is all about.
Industrial Property basically is a large subset of Intellectual Property. Where Intellectual Property encompasses all creations of the human mind, Industrial Property includes patents, trademarks, industrial designs, utility models, service marks, trade names, and geographical indications.
In the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property dated 1883, we find the “official definition” in Article 1 (3):
Industrial property shall be understood in the broadest sense and shall apply not only to industry and commerce proper, but likewise to agricultural and extractive industries and to all manufactured or natural products, for example, wines, grain, tobacco leaf, fruit, cattle, minerals, mineral waters, beer, flowers, and flour.
This is a definition of 1883 – so the language seems a little outdated. The World Intellectual Property Organization WIPO has a much more timely definition:
Industrial property takes a range of forms, the main types of which are outlined here. These include patents for inventions, industrial designs (aesthetic creations related to the appearance of industrial products), trademarks, service marks, layout-designs of integrated circuits, commercial names and designations, geographical indications and protection against unfair competition. In some cases, aspects of an intellectual creation, although present, are less clearly defined. What counts then is that the object of industrial property consists of signs conveying information, in particular to consumers, regarding products and services offered on the market. Protection is directed against unauthorized use of such signs that could mislead consumers, and against misleading practices in general.
There is also a very simple but common negative definition of Industrial Property: Industrial Property is Intellectual Property without Copyright.
Why is all this important to know? Well, I already mentioned the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property, right? Nearly all industrialized countries are member to this treaty. And it guarantees certain rights to holders of Industrial Property rights, such as patents, trademarks and designs. As an example, you get the priority right, meaning you do not have to file a patent in each and every country of interest when first filing the patent but you have 12 months time to make this decision. You do not have this right for copyrights, because it is not an Industrial Property right which would be governed by the Paris Convention.
I hope I was able to explain what Indutrial Property is. If you want to watch more of my videos on patents, trademarks and designs, please subscribe to my channel. Most importantly: protect your intellectual property and go make it count!
