Franchising and patents have a reciprocal relationship: each is based on and supported by the other. In other words, no one may grant <\/span><\/p>\n commercial franchise rights to another person unless they legally own those rights themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n For this reason, obtaining a patent is the first foundational step. Only then should you proceed to grant franchise rights to the <\/span><\/p>\n idea or invention. It can therefore be said that franchising and patents go hand in hand and are inseparable. If this is not the case, a legal error may have occurred, which could perhaps <\/span><\/p>\n lead to the franchise agreement being terminated altogether at a later date.<\/span><\/p>\n .<\/p>\n If we have concluded that obtaining a patent is fundamental to granting a commercial franchise for a particular project, how can we obtain this<\/span><\/p>\n A patent? And what are the requirements for obtaining one?<\/span><\/p>\n Here are some of these requirements:<\/span><\/p>\n .<\/p>\n This may seem obvious\u2014otherwise, what would be the point of granting a patent for an old idea? However, this requirement is intended to define the concept of innovation itself and what qualifies as innovative <\/span><\/p>\n and what does not.<\/span><\/p>\n Accordingly, Article 115 of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) law defines innovation as follows: An invention involves an inventive step <\/span><\/p>\n if, in the opinion of a person of ordinary skill in the art, it does not follow in an obvious manner from the prior art relevant to the patent application in which the invention is claimed.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n .<\/p>\n One of the requirements for obtaining a patent is that the invention be capable of industrial application; otherwise, it would serve no practical purpose. Even <\/span><\/p>\n simply obtaining the patent itself would contribute nothing new. Inventions exist to help develop societies and move people\u2019s lives forward.<\/span><\/p>\n .<\/p>\n An idea or invention may indeed be innovative, yet not be new\u2014that is, similar ideas may already have been patented. In that case, the patent would not be<\/span><\/p>\n objective or even justified.<\/span><\/p>\n .<\/p>\n This requirement calls for consideration of a society\u2019s general rules, ethics, and public morals. This makes it the relative aspect of the requirements for obtaining <\/span><\/p>\n a patent: what is acceptable in one society may be rejected in another.<\/span><\/p>\n Accordingly, the invention must be lawful or socially acceptable in the community where a patent is being sought from one of its institutions.<\/span><\/p>\n Once these conditions have been met, the invention will be eligible for a patent certificate. The inventor or owner of the idea will then be entitled to <\/span><\/p>\n grant its rights to another person, and the franchise agreement will be valid.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u0628\u064a\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0641\u0631\u0646\u0634\u0627\u064a\u0632 \u0648\u0628\u0631\u0627\u0621\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0627\u062e\u062a\u0631\u0627\u0639 \u0639\u0644\u0627\u0642\u0629 \u062c\u062f\u0644\u064a\u0629 \u062a\u0628\u0627\u062f\u0644\u064a\u0629\u061b \u0641\u0623\u062d\u062f\u0647\u0645\u0627 \u064a\u062a\u0623\u0633\u0633 \u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0622\u062e\u0631 \u0648\u064a\u0642\u0648\u0645 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647\u060c \u0628\u0645\u0639\u0646\u0649 \u0623\u0646\u0647 \u0644\u0627 \u064a\u062d\u0642 \u0644\u0635\u0627\u062d\u0628 \u0647\u0630\u0647 \u0627\u0644\u0641\u0643\u0631\u0629 \u0623\u0648 \u062a\u0644\u0643 \u0623\u0646 \u064a\u0645\u0646\u062d \u062d\u0642\u0648\u0642 [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":20907,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_ibtdi_aa_focus_keyword":"","_ibtdi_aa_secondary_keywords":"","_ibtdi_aa_audience":"","_ibtdi_aa_tone":"","_ibtdi_aa_summary":"","_ibtdi_aa_reviewer_name":"","_ibtdi_aa_reviewer_bio":"","_ibtdi_aa_reviewer_url":"","_ibtdi_aa_reviewed_date":"","_ibtdi_aa_service_id":"","_ibtdi_aa_related_ids":"","_ibtdi_aa_human_reviewed":"","_ibtdi_aa_disable":"","_ibtdi_aa_disable_links":"","_ibtdi_aa_sources":"","_ibtdi_aa_update_notes":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[491],"tags":[5712,20760,9604,3950,16438,20761],"class_list":["post-20906","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-491","tag-5712","tag-20760","tag-9604","tag-3950","tag-16438","tag-20761"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20906","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20906"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20906\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20907"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20906"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20906"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ibtdi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20906"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Patent Grant Requirements:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n
