Considering the accelerating pace of commercial and media innovation in Kuwait, intellectual property has become one of the most valuable assets held by companies, and its protection requires precise legal understanding and effective engagement with the competent authorities, in accordance with the provisions of Law No. 13 of 2015 regarding the Organization of Intellectual Property Rights, and its relevant executive regulations.
