First Multimedia Trademark Registered in Kosovo with INLEX Legal Support

INLEX Law Firm has contributed to a significant development in Kosovo’s intellectual property
landscape with the successful registration of the country’s first Multimedia Trademark.
Attorney at Law Edita Ismaili successfully completed the registration before the Kosovo Intellectual
Property Agency, marking an important milestone in the evolution of trademark protection in
Kosovo.
Multimedia trademarks protect distinctive combinations of sound and motion that convey brand
identity, similar to globally recognized examples such as the opening sequence of 20th Century Fox,
Netflix, or the Microsoft Windows animated logo.
This registration establishes a new standard for brand protection in Kosovo, enabling businesses to
safeguard innovative and dynamic elements of their identity. Further details on this landmark
registration have been highlighted in an article published by the Kosovo Intellectual Property
Agency.
