From 2011 to 2018, the Finnish Terminology Centre TSK carried out terminology work commissioned by the Finnish Patent and Registration Office. The purpose of the project was to harmonise concept usage within the Patent and Registration Office, and to lay a foundation for the semantic interoperability between the information systems of the Patent and Registration Office and its partners.

Over the years, the terminology grew in size, the result being a publication which covers more than 250 concepts pertaining to, e.g., the Finnish Patent and Registration Office’s registers, industrial property rights, and audit quality inspection. The concepts are provided with terms and descriptions in Finnish, and the Finnish terms are given equivalents in Swedish and English.
