Trademark Protection in the Age of AI and Digital Brands
AI is both an opportunity and a risk for brands. We explain why registration is critical for AI startups and digital brands.
Expert content, legal guides, industry news — everything you need to know to protect your brand.
The Webx blog explains trademark and intellectual property procedures the way they actually work in practice. The articles here cover every stage in the life of a trademark: pre-filing similarity research, choosing the right class, examination by TÜRKPATENT, opposition to publication and the routes available against a refusal, the use requirement after registration, renewal, assignment and licensing. Everything is written against Industrial Property Law No. 6769 and TÜRKPATENT's current practice, and articles are updated when the legislation or the office's practice changes.
The posts are grouped so you can find what you need quickly. Start with Guides to learn the process end to end, use Trademark Classes to decide where to file, turn to Refusals & Oppositions if your application was rejected or someone opposed your mark, read Legal for infringement and litigation, and see International for protection abroad. Questions specific to your sector or company structure live under By Industry and For Businesses, while budgeting is covered in Pricing.
These articles are general information and do not replace advice on your own file. If you want to know which route fits your brand, start with a free preliminary search.
