Dear Luiza,

Following up on this matter, please be advised that, according to the most recent Official Bulletin of the Venezuelan Trademark Office, the Registrar has decided to resume the prosecution of trademark application No. 2018-001397 for THINKSMART, in int. class 9, in the name of LENOVO (SINGAPORE) PTE. LTD.

In this regard, please note that such Office did not follow the correct procedural steps before issuing the refusal, as the application was denied without completing the mandatory stage of publication. Due to this procedural error, the Office overturned the refusal and ordered that the application be reinstated to the appropriate stage. This decision was published in the current Official Gazette No. 653, dated May 19, 2026 (Enclosed).

In light of the above, the application will now continue its prosecution and will be re-examined (including verification of formal requirements, such as the PoA, and description of the mark) before proceeding to publication.

We will continue to monitor this matter closely and will keep you informed of any developments.

Should you require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Best regards,

Dear Sirs:

We acknowledge receipt with thanks of your e-mail dated February 16, 2021. We hope you and your team are well and safe-guarded.

Regretfully, please be advised that no further developments have occurred herein since our last correspondence dated August 31, 2020. We are still awaiting the issuance of the corresponding resolutions deciding the Motions for Reconsideration filed against the denial of Applns. Nos. 2018-001397, 2018-001398, 2018-001399 and 2018-001400 for THINKSMART, and which were duly ratified in 2018.

The authorities of the Venezuelan TMO were working to solve their huge backlog regarding the pending files.

However, due to the pandemic, and that all deadlines were suspended, the TMO is currently experiencing delays above those already experienced.

We are keeping surveillance on these cases. Please rest assured that, as soon as any development takes place in this regard, we shall inform you immediately.

Best regards,

Thanks for your quick reply Nestor!

We were just wondering as this “THINKSMART” application was filed together with the other 4 applications.

In case the ratification will become due, you may just proceed and bill us accordingly.

Thank you so much for your precious support!
