New edition of Look-Alike Chart
The MARQUES Unfair Competition Team has published the 2023 edition of the Look-Alike Chart, which includes information on enforcement against look-alikes around the world.
The Chart covers nearly 50 countries from Argentina to USA and includes information on 17 key questions, such as:
- Can proprietary rights be acquired in the get-up/trade dress of a product?
- Is protection available for product shape on its own, or only in combination with packaging/get-up?
- Is protection available after a former IP right has lapsed?
- What are the requirements to show infringement?
- Is quality difference relevant?
- What other factors influence infringement findings?
- Can unused rights be enforced?
- What are the average costs of court actions?
- Are customs and criminal actions available?
The Chart is compiled by members of the Unfair Competition Team and can be downloaded on the Team’s page here (MARQUES log-in required). You can contact members of the Team with any questions.
