India's First IPR Policy - How Entrepreneurs going to benefit

India has entered into Globalized Era many decades ago and India’s Intellectual Property Law is already complying with WIPO ( WORLD INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ORGANIZATION ) and TRIPS (  The Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights ). This is an international agreement administered by the World Trade Organization (WTO) that sets down minimum standards for many forms of intellectual property (IP) regulation as applied to nationals of other WTO Members. However, being a superpower, India was lacking in proper implementation of it’s IP Policy for strengthening its position as destination of Business and Trade Investment.

When current Modi Government came into power in the year of 2014, since then PM Narendra Modi trying to establish a mechanism for “Easing Doing Business in India “. He has also launched pilot MISSIONS Like #MAKEININDIA, #SKILLINDIA #DIGITALINDIA and last but not the least #STARTUPINDIA_STANDUPINDIA.

However, these Missions will only become effective when there’s an effective and implemented Intellectual Property Law. In order to address the need, Ministry of Commerce & Industry along with Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion introduced the final draft of India’s national intellectual property policy. This draft was for inter-ministerial consultation would had been sent to the Cabinet for approval after receiving comments nearly a year ago.

Then finally, on 13^th may, 2016 India’s First Intellectual Property Policy (IP POLICY) was unveiled to the public at large, making a promise of “Creative India, Innovative India”.

Highlighted Areas of IP Law that has been covered by the Policy:

With respect to Copyright:

                                                                                                                                          

 ( i ) The administration of the Copyright Act 1957 along with the office of the Registrar of Copyrights, under the Department of Higher Education, is being transferred to the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion.

( ii ) Amendment of Indian Cinematographic Act, 1952 for making it more unfriendly with Piracy .

( iii ) Introduction of Copyright Search Service, with a Database of registered copyrighted material.

( iv ) Expediting Copyright services

( v )  Take urgent measures for effective management and administration of copyright societies to ensure transparency and efficiency in the collection and disbursement of royalties for the best interest of the right holders. Copyright Societies are those who is responsible for collecting Royalties from the various user groups on behalf of Artists.

With respect to Patent, Trademark and Design

( vi ) Expedite processing of  applications, that’s trademark Registration within 1 month by 2017 also addressing backlog of nearly 2 lakhs new applications.

( vii )  ‘Tatkal (instant)’ option offered under the latest amended patent Rules. These benefits will also be available to entities that file their first application in India.

 ( viii ) Introducing online search & filling for INDUSTRIAL DESIGNS.

With respect to other Laws

 ( ix ) Empowering Cinematographic Act, which have already been discussed above, other than that creating IP related interfaces for Competition Act, and reviewing other Acts and Rules for harmonizing with Intellectual Property laws.

With respect to Education

( x ) Introducing IP as a subject matter at school curriculum, setting up online  and offline IP training courses for building up IP awareness.

Deal for Entrepreneurs:

India is being considered as one of the startup hubs with cities like Delhi, Hyderabad, Bangalore and Mumbai taking the lead. India has seen an enormous growth With respect tocreating support vessels for early stage or pro-funded Startups’ growth. Many private or publicly funded missions has already been initiated to drag and drop startups in Indian subcontinent, but my personal option has always been catering the need for innovation, and building up facilities where product based startups can be nurtured and build awesome products. Encouraging Entrepreneurs’ to INVENT first, we need to give them reason for INNOVATION, that’s called incentivizing.

Incentivizing by way of giving them a monopolistic RIGHT to Produce and Market for 20 years, Tax benefits, and expedite approvals for speeding up production.   

So in order to address the need, Indian Government already launched Startup India Mission and this new IPR Policy will be using as a fuel into it.

Although, Indian Patent System will still continue to prevent Evergreening of patent under existing sec 3 (d) of Indian Patent Act. Evergreening refers to a variety of legal, business and technological strategies by which producers extend their patents over products that are about to expire, in order to retain royalties from them, by either taking out new patents. Stopping Evergreening in Indian Patent landscape does affect  global Pharmaceutical Companies, but irrespective of continues pressure from US Pharmaceutical Association and other relative lobbyist, India took a major step by not vouching for EVERGREENING. However, that’s actually helping Indian Drug Manufacturers to produce generic drugs and also obtaining COMPULSORY LICENSE which is a kind of license granted after evaluating an application for revoking a Patent Rights for the common good of public at large. This is also encouraging R&D including open source based research such as Open Source Drug Discovery (OSDD) by the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) for new inventions for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases, especially those that are life threatening and those that have high incidence in India.

It’s said that getting a Patent Approval is very time consuming in India, sometimes it takes nearly 5 years of total timeline for Patent Grant that too after paying hefty prices for Statutory fees and Attorney cost. Even Mr. Narendra Modi also aware about the pain in ass for inventors and entrepreneurs, that is why he addressed the same issue during his speech at the time of unveiling STARTUP INDIA Mission, in order to address this pain point.  IPR policy will also curbing the total timeline by introducing TATKAL facility and reducing the Statutory Fees for Entrepreneurs and Inventors by amending Patent RULE, and will also provide Tax benefits for inventors and Makers. 

This will surely encourage Entrepreneurs to go for patenting their state of the Art Technology.

Research and Development is a major step for pre or post Product launch, this new Policy also includes support verticals for R&D process and easy funding norms for the same.

Apart from Patent, IPR Policy also addressed other IP products like Geographic Indication and looking forward to give a diverse opportunity in terms of Marketing in wide level. A geographical indication (GI) is a sign used on products that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation that are due to that origin. In order to function as a GI, a sign must identify a product as originating in a given place, e.g Mango of Malda ( W.B ) which is having its own segmented marketplaces in India and abroad. So now startups solving marketing problems in indigenous segments like Indian handicrafts now can avail benefits from this Policy framework.    

Valuation for IP or Intangible assets non- liquidated yet, although many methodology is already there but no single window methodology ever provided at policy level for subtracting actual value from IP Products, previously Indian Accounting Standard definitely tried to solve this problem by introducing IAS 38 but that’s moreover for Intangible assets not exactly for Intellectual Properties. But this new policy promised to implement proper guidelines for the same. On the other hand, it’s already been declared that IP Assets can be mortgaged for raising funds. So Startups now can look for this alternative means of fund raising. This policy also empowers social entrepreneurs like craftsman, Artisans’, farmers by providing IP friendly loan and linking up Venture Capital and Angel Funds for the development and Commercialization of IP Assets.

What’s NOT in the platter:

·         This policy is still silent about Software Patenting Issue in India

·      Even no clear directives towards IP protection and monetization for emerging Techs like Internet of Things ( IOT ), Virtual and Augmented Reality and Gaming.

·         No promises of strengthen copyright Protection for Software neither for online marketplaces.

·         No directives towards UX and UI protection through Industrial Designs.

·         No clear prospective on prototyping laws and protecting and commercializing subsequent IPR issues while prototyping.

·         The whole 30 pages exhaustive policy document made without any supportive empirical data.

But irrespective of all its flaws; this is India’s first Intellectual Property Policy which is subject to be validated by proper ACTION.

How to Name your Startup/Brand #Startup #Brand #Rebrand #Entrepreneur

Naming your startup/brand/offering is very important, however, some of the pragmatic entrepreneurs think that they should not be wasting time in all such activity. As a matter of fact, for every successful company there is one name that did just fine. As a part of the Startup strategy, route should be selected with lesser friction to the growth and yes wrong selection of name/brand may lead to a difficult path.

It is to be understood that its just a one time cost (may in terms of time) to zero down to a great name but the benefit is forever. 

Here are some suggestions that should be followed while naming your startup/offering from onstartups.com:

1. Make sure it’s legal and not being used!  This should be obvious, but it’s an important step that too many entrepreneurs skip.  Before attaching yourself to a name, make sure that someone else doesn’t already have claim to it by way of a trademark.  You should take a quick look at Trademark Search. The good news is that if you satisfy some of the other conditions below (domain name, twitter handle, Facebook name), odds are relatively low that someone’s already using the name.

2. Hint At What You Do:  You have two paths to go when picking a startup name.  You can pick a name that is “synthetic” and made-up (example: Quora) or you can use somthing that is somewhat descriptive of what you do (example: Snapdeal or flipkart).  Synthetic names are often great in the long, long-term (easily trademarkable, and you can truly “own” them and infuse them with meaning).

3. Make it easy to remember: How do you know whether a startup name is easy to remember?  You don’t know.  So, test it.  Talk to people.  Describe the company.  At the end of a 2–10 minute conversation, casually ask them if they remember what the name of the company is.  If it didn’t “register” it’s not a failure on their part (and make sure to tell them that), but a failure on your part for not having something that’s memorable enough.

4. Make it unambiguous when spoken:  A quick way to test this is to ask friends and family what they think of the name over the phone — and ask them to spell it back to you.  If a decent percent of them get it wrong — or are uncertain, you’ve got a problem.

5. Make it unambiguous in Google:  If your name is something like “Pumpkin”, you’re going to have a harder time distinguishing when people are talking about the generic term, or when they’re talking about your company.  Of course, there are plenty of examples where a startup started with a generic word and went on to be pretty successful (Mint.com jumps to mind).  That’s why these are suggestions (not laws) and they’re changeable.

6.  The social media handles have to be available.  No tricks with numbers and underscores and stuff.  You want the most natural, obvious twitter handle that matches your company name.  This is not quite as hard as .com domain names — but getting harder every day.

7. Keep it short.  Always good advice, but particularly true in the age of Twitter/facebook.  The more characters in your company name, the more characters in the tweets that people write that mention your company name.  The fewer the syllables, the easier it is for people to say.  Great examples of one and two-syllable names:  Dropbox, Mint, FreshBooks, ZenDesk. 

8. Try to get your main keyword into the name.  This helps with SEO and signals to potential visitors what they might find on your site.  For example, one of sites is YourStory.com.  Not particularly creative, but you have to admit — it’s clear.  (And, is likely partly responsible for my high rankings in Google for a bunch of startup related words).

9. Don’t name your company after yourself.  When customers hear something like “Ramesh Sharma Enterprises”, it doesn’t make them immediately think “Wow, that must be an awfully cool/successful/stable company”.  It sounds a bit amateurish right at the get go.  The other reason is that if you name the company after yourself, too many people are going to want to talk to you.  That’s ok when you’re the only person in the company to talk to, but becomes problematic as your startup grows and there are other people trying to sell/support/market.

10. Don't Use An Acronym:  It's hard to get emotional about a three letter acronym.  It's hard to hug an acronym.  As a corollary to this, try not to have a company name with three words in it, because it's long enough that people are going to be tempted to reduce it to an acronym.

11. Have a story.  When someone asks (and they will), so why did you pick X for your name, it’s nice to have something relatively interesting to say.  Names are a part of your personality, and the absence of a personality is rarely a good thing.  It’s OK to be purely scientific in your name selection, but a good story never hurts. 

12. Pay attention to character sequences in multi-word names:  This one’s a bit subtle.  But, if you have a name that is two words stuck together, then be mindful of what character ends the first word, and what starts the second.  Example: If your company name is something like BetterReading, it’s sub-optimal (because Better ends with “R” and reading starts with “R”.  Normally, that’s OK, but when you type it out as a URL, people will often see:  betterreading.com — which is not terrible, but does cause the brain to “pause” for a micro-second because it feels a tad unnatural.  And, I’d be remiss if I didn’t bring up the widely popular example of unfortunate character sequences:  expertsexchange.com.  When capitalized properly, this name is just fine (ExpertsExchange) which is what the site owners intended.  But, it turns out, this can be confused as “ExpertSexChange” (which is not what was intended).  Make sure you think through the combinations properly.

13. Seek timeless instead of trendy:  It seems that every generation of startups has their own “trendy” approach to names.  Examples are the dropping-vowels thing (like Flickr), the breaking up of words (like del.icio.us) or the newly fashionable “.ly” names. Pick a name that is timeliness.  One that people will see 10 years from now and not think “Hey, they’re one of those companies…”. 

So try to think on these lines while naming your startup offering and believe that getting a name registered through Trademark Registration is very very important.
Do remember the case of Foodiebay rechristened to Zomato, because ebay in its name being one of the reasons and the name was not Trademark registered
