Empowering MSMEs: Unravelling the Essence of Business Law and Brand Protection in Indonesia
Abstract
In the context of Indonesia, as a country with a very large number of MSMEs, a good understanding of the role of business law and trademark protection is a very important capital to create a conducive and sustainable business climate for MSMEs. Along with a better understanding, it is also expected that there will be an increased awareness of the importance of trademark registration and business law protection for MSMEs in Indonesia. This study explores the complex legal and trademark protection system that Indonesian MSMEs (micro, small, and medium enterprises) have to go through. Business registration procedures, compliance standards, and legal support present barriers that are revealed through normative analysis and further explained through interviews with experts. In addition, there are problems with brand protection procedures, such as difficult law enforcement and protracted brand registration procedures. The results are synthesized into normative solutions that suggest changes to the company's compliance, registration, legal aid, and brand protection systems. If put into practice, these solutions can empower MSMEs, encourage innovation, and boost the Indonesian economy. In addition, it is also important to create mechanisms that make it easier for MSMEs in the trademark registration process. Simple measures such as simplification of registration forms and improved accessibility of information on the registration process can greatly help MSMEs with limited resources and knowledge. These measures, along with the proposed normative solutions, can significantly improve MSME trademark protection, encourage innovation, and strengthen the Indonesian economy.
