Overview
Recently, news was broadcast that foreigners who were making and selling copies of
the famous European brand "Hugkin" were arrested. It may be the instinct that many people want
to imitate successful products and successful people, but the law that protects intellectual
property rights such as patents, copyrights and trademark rights does not allow unlimited Is.
It protects the creator of intellectual property and encourages creation in various fields of society.
This idea is a very important idea in the modern nation. Without such a law, creators would be harmed
and social progress would be stagnated as a result.
Since each country has a legal system created based on this way of thinking,
it is dangerous to ignore it and start up a business.
In some cases, after starting a business with a new idea in mind, imitation by others
and patents are taken first, and even if you are the founder, you may be asked for compensation,
or you may be prohibited from selling.
In addition, even if you have a patent in Japan, if you do not take it overseas,
you may be overwhelmed by another corporation to obtain a patent overseas, and you may not
be able to sell overseas even though you are an inventor.
