Trademark
A trademark (verbal sign, figurative sign, sound sign, multimedia sign, position sign…) has a real function of identification of your products and/or services compared to those of the competition.
It is a title of industrial property which participates in the valorisation of your company.
The development of digital technologies contributes to the attractiveness of the trademark.
