Intellectual Property Law

In Cyprus, the movement of employees from one company to another has become increasingly common, especially after the development of specialized professional skills. However, when an employee is hired by a competing company or establishes their own competing business, issues may arise regarding the use of confidential information, trade secrets, or client data. In such cases, the immediate response of the affected company is critical and often involves taking legal measures to protect its interests.

In the digital age, intellectual property rights (IPRs) such as trademarks, copyrights, source codes and softwares are not only valuable but also vulnerable. Their intangible nature makes them susceptible to immediate dissipation, assignment, or exploitation in ways that can irreversibly undermine their value. Recognising this, Cypriot courts have developed a robust approach to the interim protection of IPRs pending the final adjudication of a dispute.
