Apart from protecting different things, they differ in the fact that the trade name cannot be internationally expanded, as it has to be registered country by country, following specific laws and provisions of each territory; contrary to how Trademarks are handled (international trademark and European Union trademark).<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”WHAT ARE CONVENTIONAL BRANDS?

They are not easy to register.<\/p>\n Sound mark<\/strong><\/p>\n The sound mark is composed of a sound or combination of sounds. This type of mark is represented by an audio file or sheet music.<\/p>\n Motion mark<\/strong><\/p>\n The sequence of images or videos representing a change of position is the description of the motion mark.<\/p>\n Multimedia mark<\/strong><\/p>\n The combination of image and sound is what is known as multimedia mark.
