Who we all are...
Never mind Trump and Clinton -- here's the biggest thing about the US!
Presidents of the United States may come and go -- and indeed that is always the case. A valid trade mark, however, is forever. That's why it's so important to get your act together when designating the United States in your International Application. This sounds quite easy but has proved quite frustrating for so many European trade mark owners that MARQUES has taken this issue up and is running an outstanding seminar that it would be folly to miss.
Essentially, the story runs like this. "MARQUES and the USPTO: IRs and Designating the US" is the title of a seminar that MARQUES is running later this month, masterminded by the experienced Tove Graulund (Graulund Consulting, Denmark). For the uninitiated, Tove is a Life Member of MARQUES and a member of the MARQUES International Trade Mark Law & Practice Team (details of this team can be found here).
To be more precise:
The seminar will cover both legal and procedural issues, as well as explaining the tools available, and is designed to help applicants overcome objections when filing International Registrations based on the home application or registration. The seminar has been planned for the benefit of in-house counsel, trade mark lawyers and paralegals who work with the Madrid System on a daily basis.
Details of these seminars can be accessed via the MARQUES website if you click here. It comes in three versions:
- Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Monday, 24 October 2016
- Munich, Germany, Wednesday, 26 October 2016
- London, UK, Friday, 28 October 2016
