Thomson Reuters Updates SAEGIS Platform
Thomson CompuMark, an Intellectual Property & Science business of Thomson Reuters, introduced an update to its SAEGIS platform, adding a new Industrial Designs database.SAEGIS has a collection of trademark screening intelligence from 186 countries. Industrial Designs provides critical information about registered design patents to brand owners. Using the combined service, users can reduce brand risk by comparing their products to more than 9 million designs from 17 countries in the databases and registering their products to defend against design imitation. “Design is an enormously powerful piece of intellectual property that has historically been very difficult to vet in the trademark clearance process. With our new Industrial Designs solution, there is now a clear-cut, rules-based set of tools to accurately and efficiently search the registered design universe to make certain a brand’s unique look and feel is protected,” says David Brown, managing director of Thomson Reuters’ IP (intellectual property) solutions.
