On 31 August 2025, NGB Corporation, Japan, led by Ms. Mari Senoo and Ms. Sachiko Yokota, visited SUPREMEiP® in Dhaka. The meeting focused on intellectual property matters in Bangladesh, especially long-pending trademark applications, and on practical ways to resolve them.
What was discussed
Both teams reviewed the status of IP matters in Bangladesh. The main topic was the long-pending trademark applications at the Department of Patents, Designs and Trademarks (DPDT), and the strategies that can help move them forward.
- Long-pending trademarks: the challenges of pending applications at the DPDT, and ways to speed up resolution
- Collaborative solutions: how NGB’s international experience and SUPREMEiP®’s local expertise can streamline IP protection and prosecution in Bangladesh
