Picture the scene – you’ve just come across an illegal website online, you realise they’ve been selling counterfeit goods directly to consumers for some time now.

More and more this is becoming the difficult reality – even the normality – for brand owners. The latest Commission statistics show that around 80,000 IPR infringement cases were registered by EU customs in 2010, almost double the previous year.
The Brand Protection and Anti-Counterfeiting Summit in Amsterdam is one of highlights of the IP events calendar, each year bringing together some of the world’s leading and best up-and-coming brand owners, uniting them with enforcement and key associations, and using this platform to develop robust, cost-effective and innovative brand protection and anti-counterfeiting strategies – wherever your expertise may be!
Brand New Exclusive Podcast: Guido Baumgartner, Vice-President for Global Brand Protection at Coty Inc, joins Legal IQ to discuss Trends and Challenges in Brand Protection and Anti-Counterfeiting. He talks about the sale of counterfeit goods on the internet through various means, the extent of the problem and why it is important to act now.
The 2011 Summit takes place on 30th November – 2nd December, and brings you 3 jam-packed days covering subject areas from the upcoming gTLD’s, online IP infringement and social media, all the way to operational enforcement case studies and customs perspectives, to global trademark portfolio management! Join us this year to discuss:
