TIPS Rule: First to file. Use gives no rights on trademarks or patents.
There is no regional protection.
File a trademark or patent application in each country you
want to get protection.
Do not let your distributor manage your trademarks in his
market.
Do not rely just on contracts to protect your trademarks and
patents
