| Abstract: | In the year since the fall of Communism, Russia has revised its patent, trademark and computer software law to meet generally-accepted international standards. Copyright and trade secret legislation still falls short of international standards, but should be revised by 1994. Companies selling or developing technologies in Russia need to comply with the registration formalities of Russian legislation or risk losing their patent and trademark rights. Furthermore, they must ensure that all their Russian employees sign written contracts assigning intellectual property rights and agreeing to respect trade secrets. |
