Registered TrademarksProduct Each product within the Datasat line should be branded to match the corporate brand. In some instances there may be product families that require their own branding. Products and technologies should be registered, and once registered added to the list of sub-brands. Sub-BrandsDatasat Digital Entertainment has acquired sub-brands that have been previously registered, including some DTS technologies. These should appear with the appropriate registration or trademark designations:
: Digital Booking System® : DTS Digital Sound® : DTS Access™ : DTS Media Link XD™ : XD20 Media Player™
Registered Trademarks Page 10
Using DTS It is important in rebranding Datasat Digital Entertainment that the brand becomes its own entity. That being said the legacy of DTS is a factor that cannot be over looked. The value the DTS brand carries is important to both industry executives and international markets.
As a part of the rebranding process, Datasat Digital Entertainment has transitioned away from the dual logo that featured the DTS Logo. To compensate, “Formerly DTS Digital Cinema” can be added to marketing materials to help aid in the rebranding.
DTS Digital Cinema will always remain a part of the brand story, but it is important to build the value of the Datasat Digital Entertainment brand within the industry.
