It's more or less like a group of warehouses providing services as 3rd party logistics providers for companies in international commerce. It is oriented to trucking, because it's the main (almost only) transport mode in Mercosur. I need to register the intellectual property before starting to offer it for sale. I live in Uruguay but I intend to sell the project worldwide. How do i register it? Is it valid to register it as a book? May I register at least the layout of the complex and the architecture? I am the only author of the project, which is my thesis work in Industrial Engineering. 1. Where do you want to register? At the Mercosur countries (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay), the USA and in Europe (at least Italy and Spain which are the most active here) 2. What do you want to register? The market research, the business plan, the architecture (incuding the layout and the designs of the warehouses) and the refrigerated warehouse design. 3. How do you plan to use the IP? I want to sell it to any company that works as 3PL provider, transfering my rights to them.
