Enhanced Anti-Counterfeiting Strategies & Partnerships to Effectively Impact Your Brand Protection Initiatives
Since our West Coast summit in San Francisco in January, the fast-paced anti-counterfeiting space is already bubbling with new activity and news. For example:
- Amazon finally came under growing brand pressure and said it will expand its anti-counterfeit program in March.
- The US customs declared 2016 to be their biggest year for seizing counterfeit goods so far.
- U.S. President Donald Trump too signed an executive order to take on counterfeiters in April.
- In China, where most counterfeits originate, a Chinese Supreme Court judge said that Chinese Courts should fully protect brands - domestic and foreign - by cracking down on those who register trademarks with "malicious intent".
The experts at our summit will discuss all these developments and what they mean for your brand. If you are not already convinced, here are a few more reasons:
- Understand how the far, border-less effects of Internet are changing the counterfeiting affecting manufacturing to end consumer sales.
- Follow the impact of global IP laws to ensure that your brand is protected everywhere.
- China focus: Learn about the right to identify targets for raids, working with authorities to enforce punishments and preventing and protecting your brand and IP from trademark infringements.
- Case studies of creative brand protection solutions and technologies.
- Explore ROI for AC & BP programs across budgets and enterprize size.
- Case studies on business, tech and legal actions that have worked.
