Congratulations! You have taken a brilliant step by filing your patent application before the patent office to protect your invention and prevent others from commercially making or using it without your consent. Now that your patent application has been filed with your local patent office, you should consider protecting your invention in other countries too. Patents are territorial rights which means as the owner of the invention, you need to know that the exclusive rights of the patent are only applicable in countries where the patent has been filed. Hence, if you are thinking about protecting your invention in other countries where you want to market your invention, then it is best to file your patent application in those countries.

By Georgina Scott
Prosecco, a white wine traditionally hailing from northern Italy, was recently the subject of a Geographical Indication (GI) dispute in Singapore. An application was made to register Prosecco as a GI on 3 May 2019 in Singapore by Consorzio di Tutela della Denominazione di Origine Controllata Prosecco (Applicant). The Applicant is a consortium established under Italian law to coordinate and manage the Denomination of Controlled Origin (“DOC”). DOC is a certification shown on the label of reserved wines from Italy that meet specific production regulations. The GI was to include the territories of Belluno, Gorizia, Padova, Pordenone, Treviso, Trieste, Udine, Venice and Vicenza, located in the North East region of Italy.
