Can I Register a Trademark for My Startup’s Unique Name?” π§πΌ
π Starting a business is thrilling, but protecting your brand? That’s next level! One of the most common questions we get from startup founders in India is:
“Can I register a trademark for my startup’s unique name?”
π #TrademarkRegistration #StartupLaw #BrandProtection
Short Answer? YES! But here’s the full scoop:
A trademark is your shield π‘️, protecting your startup’s name, logo, tagline, or even a distinctive sound or smell (yes, really! ππ΅). It gives you exclusive rights to use your brand identity and prevents others from riding on your hard-earned goodwill.
