Nice to know - Portugal is a founding member of the Paris Convention!
Portugal is a founding member of the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property, signed in Paris, France, on March 20, 1883, which was one of the first treaties on intellectual property. It established a Union for the protection of industrial property. It defines a priority right which enables a much easier internationalization of national rights and assures that foreign applicants are given equal treatment as nationals in each participating country of the Union.
The Convention is still in force as of today and has become one of the cornerstones of modern IP rights.
