Protecting Intellectual Property
Last published date:

In any foreign market companies should consider several general principles for effective protection of their intellectual property. For background, link to our article on Protecting Intellectual Property and Stopfakes.gov for more resources. The Ministry of Industry takes the lead on intellectual property, but the Ministry of Youth and Youth Employment covers copyright issues. For more information, contact the U.S. International Trade Administration’s Office of Intellectual Property Rights Director, Stevan Mitchell at Stevan.Mitchell@trade.gov.
