Noted earlier that the philanthropic organisation Telluriad Foundation from Colorado, USA (or actually Brazilian collecting society ECAD), has made trademark infringement claims against the Brazilian Olympic Games hosts for having designed a logo that is, apparently, in its symbolisation of friendly handshakes and camaraderie too similar to the distinctive traits of the foundation's own logo.
After yet another successful implementation of the Indian Patent Act Section 3(d) my thoughts are invariably drawn to innovation and charity, perhaps best represented by the largest private foundation in the world: The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. This philanthropic endeavour pushes loads of money into research projects that in the end, hopefully, benefits the less fortunate*, perhaps in the shape of AIDS drugs, research in forgotten diseases and better (or more) food.
