After a year, the company bought majority shares of Trademarks Directory Service (TMDS) and it started offering worldwide watching service and monitored all types of trademarks including 3D, colors, sounds, smells, and gestures for some of the world’s famous brands.
In $2000, CPA Global added additional offices in the US located in Alexandria, Virginia and San Francisco, California and other parts of the country at the same time it launches the CPA Direct which allows its clients to directly and securely renew their portfolio online 24/7. CPA Domarque, a domain digital content service allowing clients protect, manage and maintain their domain names was launched in 2001 and acquired Memotech Interface Systems, a company in Paris which provides software for corporations and subsequently opened additional offices in London and Munich.
The following year, 2002 CPA Global acquired significant stake in Maxim Technology and it allows them to provide the Inprotech software for IP lawyers and the company’s trademark searching went online which enabled its customers to obtain quotes and track progress. CPASS was created in 2003, an integration of Memotech and Maxim in the CPA business making it the leading provider of IP software.
