Intellectual Property Law in Cyprus

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this monograph provides a survey and analysis of the rules concerning intellectual property rights in Cyprus. It covers every type of intellectual property right in depth - copyright and neighbouring rights, patents, utility models, trademarks, trade names, industrial designs, plant variety protection, chip protection, trade secrets, and confidential information. Particular attention is paid throughout to recent developments and trends.

• protection,
• conditions of protection
• ownership,
• transfer of rights,
• licences,
• scope of exclusive rights,
• limitations,
• exemptions,
• duration of protection,
• infringement,
• vailable remedies, and
