Frequently Asked Questions

How can we prevent employees from taking core technology when they leave?

Comprehensive NDAs, access-controlled technical documentation, know-how formalization, and information classification policies significantly reduce this risk. Winners provides full policy design and legal document review.

Our trademark is registered in Taiwan — are we protected overseas too?

Taiwan trademark registration only covers Taiwan. For overseas markets, you must register in each target country, or use the Madrid System for international trademark registration. Winners can help design the most cost-effective cross-border strategy.

Is patent filing expensive? Is it always necessary?

Costs vary by country and technical complexity. Not all technology should be patented (filing means disclosure); in some cases, maintaining it as a trade secret offers better protection. Winners helps you make the right strategic choice.

We have discovered a competitor is infringing our IP. What should we do?

Start by preserving complete evidence of infringement, assess the scope, and evaluate options including negotiation, licensing, or litigation. Winners provides infringement response SOPs to help you act at the most advantageous time.
