In a globalized world with fierce competition, the international expansion of a brand represents a major strategic opportunity. However, it also exposes the company to new risks in terms of intellectual property.

At IPzen, we understand the crucial importance of effectively protecting your brand during its international deployment. Our brand management software solution is designed to support businesses in this complex process by offering tools tailored to the specific challenges of global expansion.

Choosing the Appropriate Filing Classes

The first step to securing a brand internationally is identifying the relevant filing classes according to the Nice Classification. This classification groups products and services into 45 distinct classes. A judicious selection of classes ensures adequate protection against unauthorized uses and counterfeits.

IPzen facilitates this step by centralizing information related to filing classes for each brand. Through our intuitive interface, you can easily manage and track the classes associated with your brands, ensuring comprehensive coverage in target markets.

Implementing Proactive Monitoring

Once the brand is registered, it is essential to actively monitor its use to detect any potential infringement. Proactive monitoring allows you to quickly identify counterfeiting attempts, similar domain name registrations, or unauthorized uses on online platforms.

IPzen integrates advanced monitoring tools that leverage artificial intelligence to analyze global databases in real-time. Our system sends automatic alerts upon detecting suspicious activities, allowing you to take swift action to protect your rights.

Managing Intellectual Property Risks

International expansion exposes your brand to various legal risks, including prior rights disputes, oppositions, or contractual breaches. Effective management of these risks is crucial to maintaining the integrity of your brand.

IPzen offers centralized management of legal files, deadlines, and associated documents. Our platform enables you to track the progress of proceedings, manage renewals, and collaborate effectively with your legal advisors, ensuring optimal legal protection.
