How important is it to structure business relations?
If you are just starting up or already running a business, it is mandatory to consider how to structure it in the best way to protect yourself and your business. When two parties get together to run a new business, both generally share a vision and goal for the business. However, as the business progresses, the expectations, ambitions and even commitment of the parties tend to diverge. That is why it is advisable that both parties agree on their respective rights, responsibilities, privileges and powers relative to each other and finalise their agreement in black and white. A well thought out and properly constructed commercial and business relation can help your business to avoid many of the common conflicts that may arise between parties during the path of the business relationship.

What is the significance of trademark in any business and how can your company render help in this regard?
In the path of your business development, have you ever wondered how do you trademark a name and what are the benefits of trademark? And how trademarks facilitate the success of start-ups and the benefits of trademark registration in the long run? It is a top priority when a start-up is being established or while managing a current business to make sure that your brand, business name and your trademark is safe. It is vital to register the name of your business in the event that another business tries to use the same or similar name, you will have legal recourse to stop it. A trademarked name marks all of your products and services as yours and no one else’s and can also protect you from counterfeit products.
