First Singapore Patent Recognized in Cambodia

Singapore's Intellectual Property Office (IPOS) announced on March 10 that the first Singapore patent was granted protection and recognized in Cambodia on March 4. This patent also marked Cambodia's first-ever granted patent. Less than two months after IPOS and Cambodia's Ministry of Industry and Handicrafts (MIH) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), the first Singapore patent was formally recognized in Phnom Penh, through an exchange of the Singapore application form and Cambodia patent certificate between MIH and IPOS.
