Designview’s ongoing enhancement is a manifestation of the International Cooperation programme managed by OHIM in collaboration with its international partners

DesignView is a fully multilingual centralised system providing access to all registered design information held by the participating National Offices, allowing users to perform searches in one common platform.

The said integration adds over 38,000 designs such that the Designview tool now provides information and access to circa 8.8 million industrial designs in total.
