Tunisia - IP Case Study - Patent validation system in Tunisia

Company X, a fast-rising data infrastructure company from a country in the Single Market Programme, provides integrated data services and cloud operations solutions to enterprise customers across Europe. The company recently developed cloud operations software designed to help nursing homes and other geriatric facilities streamline their client information systems. Company X had registered the patent prior to the software’s launch and quickly penetrated the European markets. In line with its Africa 2030 internationalisation agenda, the company decided to open its first African headquarters in Tunisia. The company decided to explore Tunisia's intellectual property system and determine the best approach for patent registration in the country.
