semion - services for mark purchasers

Our scope of services for mark purchasers:

A company intending to introduce a new product to the market in an as short period as possible is running a high financial risk if there is no time to wait until the new product name, involving a considerable expenditure of time and costs for its creation, is registered and the term for opposition has expired.

An optimum way for the minimization of this risk is the purchase of an already registered mark which is immediatly ready for use. No question that this mark must suit the projected goods/services, have "character" and according the the requirements, has to be applicable nationally and internationally. semion® provides advice and takes action for:

Companies which are in urgent need of an immediately available and usable mark and thus desire to avoid the time intensive procedure of the registration.
