They are also transforming the Jute value chain with F2F™ (Farmer to Factory Jute Supply Chain™) project focusing in South East Asia specifically in Bangladesh at the moment.
The IP strategy project conducted extensive novelty search for its invention. It has also done analysis about the existing competition in the market, cost estimation for patent of existing as well as future Jute based innovations. It has also helped to prioritise the countries for IP protection using international and/or regional IP system.
The scope of the IP strategy covers both the existing as well as future innovations of the company. Besides, it also includes other rights for example trademark rights through use, copyrights, trade secrets etc.
Furthermore, Juteborg has also started to incorporate the IP strategy in its internal as well as external communication and spread it to the relevant stakeholders through its different communication channels.
