Singapore rolls out world's first trademark registration app

IPOS Go was equipped with AI for searching similar trademarks.

The Intellectual Property Office of Singapore (IPOS) launched IPOS Go, the world’s first mobile trademark registration app, according to a press release.

The app was designed to speed up the registration process to less than 10 minutes from an average of 45 to 60 minutes. Filing costs will also be reduced.

IPOS Go also integrated AI technology for detecting similar trademarks on the IPOS register, preventing the filing of trademarks too similar to the existing ones.

Applicants can also track their registration status, receive updates, or file for trademark renewals.

Trademark applications in Singapore have increased by 30% over the last 5 years, IPOS added.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
