Licensing issue - corporate name


indemnity agreement is recommended to be entered into with founders/ individual controller of the Indonesian Licensee .
 
This is because the courts are still unwilling to consider use of an entity's own legally registered name as trade mark infringement.
 
As long as a name is registered with the Ministry of Law, either as a corporation or partnership, there is very little that a brand owner can do and the avenue to sue the Ministry of Law for name change has been difficult.
 
As such, it is recommended that the individuals controlling the licensee separately undertake to its name.
