What may be the main (potential) events in the life of an EU/national trade mark? Here's a new map
The new academic year has begun: students (and professors!) have returned from their holidays and are now busy exploring the intricacies of IP law. As some readers may remember, over time I have shared on this blog some of the maps, diagrams and checklists prepared for my students to help them understand some of the key IP issues I teach [the materials can be found here ] . I have now revisited my old Life of a national/EU trade Mark map and worked towards updating and improving it. The new map concerning EU/national trade marks: Main life events is available below and can be downloaded here . I would like to thank fellow Kat Rosie for her feedback. There is no need to say that I am responsible for any errors/inaccuracies. As usual, any comments from readers would be very welcome! [UPDATE on 4 October 2018: Many thanks to the readers who have provided me with helpful feedback - A slightly amended version of the map has been provided]
