12. The attendees actively participated in the sessions, presenting the problems
they had been encountering in the area of patenting, design registration and trademark
registration and infringement. They wanted to know about the fee and cost involved in
the registration process, the time that it takes, the assistance available from the
government for obtaining the various IPRs. Interest was also evinced on the
Government of India schemes for reimbursement of costs for obtaining intellectual
property rights. There were some who already had obtained patents. Most had
trademarks registered. They, of course, were unaware of the wider importance and the
real economic value of Intellectual Property Rights. Many doubts were raised about the
patentability of certain innovations which they had made which were clarified to them.
13. One could say with confidence that the programme achieved the target of
generating interest in the Plastic Cluster about IPRs. Participants realised that they had
been creating IP during the course of their business and protecting them appropriately
would give them competitive edge. They also realised that while using IP belonging to
others they must take proper permissions, otherwise they would get penalised.
Participants are now eager to learn more about the IP system, how they can secure
their IPs and how effectively they can use the IP for business competitiveness. In order
to bring lasting effects, the programme needs to be followed up with more programmes
in the future. These could be of more advanced level than the one already held.
