The Department of Trade and Industry says it’s considering how the Island could join the intellectual property market.
Officials are considering whether to set up a patent office which could control intellectual properties such as trademarks and copyrights.
The moves have been announced after Liberal Vannin party leader Peter Karran asked for a patent office to be created.
Chris Corlett (pictured) of the DTI explained the office could mean more business for the Island:
Phone users told to 'pipe down' by Wetherspoons
Customers asked to switch their phones to silent or use earphones
Businesses at Grandstand hopeful of breaking-even as weather disrupts racing
MGP sessions disrupted due to conditions
Post Office starts procurement for PSM services
Follows closure of village's newsagent
£5K boost to charity helping people tackle cost-of-living pressures
Donated by Island energy provider
