Enforcing & Protecting Trade Marks

Trade mark law is evolving rapidly in Europe’s highest courts. Following the recent L’Oreal v eBay decision, online marketplaces are no longer able to claim exemption from liability of trade mark infringements. The interrelationship between community trade marks and the UK trade mark system is subject to intense scrutiny and a number of eagerly anticipated judgments including Interflora v M&S and Nokia v HMRC are set to transform the current legal landscape still further.

Simon Tracey will be discussing:

Examining the function of the trade mark
• Legal analysis of recent case law on the function of trade marks and trade mark use
• Traditional and non-traditional trade marks

The event will be held in Central London. For further details please contact Ryan Harvey on ryan.harvey@lexisnexis.co.uk or view the below event schedule.
