Trade Mark Considerations in the Software and Food and Beverage Spaces
What do coffee, art supplies and online presence have in common? Trade marks. 👀
Join us for this Lunch & Learn with Davies Collison Cave, exploring some of the latest developments, challenges and opportunities in trade marks across the software and food and beverage spaces.
While businesses in these spaces are already familiar with the value of trade marks, recent decisions in Australia and internationally have changed expectations around how trade mark owners choose, use and enforce their rights.
What to expect:
🔎 The new “rules” for adopting and clearing trade marks
☕ What is considered “descriptive” in the food and beverage space
🌏 Conflicts between foreign and local trade mark owners
💻 What is meant by “software” when it comes to trade marks
🤖 The effect of AI on trade marks
