About Us
KASS: Your Trusted IP Partners
We are a team of expert consultants providing a range of IP, Franchising and Translation services throughout Southeast Asia from our offices in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar and the Philippines.

Empowering Innovators Across Industries
We assist numerous organisations, from entrepreneurs to universities to listed corporations in expanding their business by securing and exploiting their IP rights, both locally and worldwide. We also have helped start-ups value their IP in order to secure funding from various sources, including venture capitalists.
A patent grants exclusive rights to an inventor, protecting their invention from being made, used, or sold by others for a limited time.
A trademark is a legal protection for symbols, names, or slogans used to identify and distinguish a brand or product, preventing others from using similar marks that could cause confusion.
Industrial design protects the aesthetic and functional aspects of a product's shape, appearance, and configuration, ensuring exclusive rights for the creator to prevent others from using similar designs.
Copyright is a legal protection for original works of authorship, such as literature, music, art, and software, granting creators exclusive rights to use, distribute, and reproduce their works while preventing unauthorized use by others.
Franchising is a business model that allows individuals or companies (franchisees) to operate a business using the branding, products, and operational methods of an established company (franchisor) in exchange for fees or royalties. This model enables rapid expansion and brand consistency across different locations.
IP management is the process of protecting and maximizing the value of intellectual property (like patents and trademarks). It involves identifying, monitoring, and enforcing these rights to ensure they benefit the business.
