APRAM/EUIPO Conference: a look back at our sponsorship of a key event

On Friday 13 December, our team had the honour of presenting our archives to over 600 intellectual property professionals at the APRAM/EUIPO conference. We are proud to be supporting and sponsoring this event for the third year running, alongside our trusted partner Fovea IP.

As usual, the conference organised by the APRAM – Association des Praticiens du Droit des Marques et Modèles – was full of stimulating and rewarding discussions, focusing on the most significant European decisions on designs and trademarks in 2024. These decisions play a crucial role in structuring the IP landscape, and the insights provided by eminent speakers such as Yann Basire, Director of the CEIPI (Centre d’Etudes Internationales de la Propriété Intellectuelle), and Evangelia Loli, IP Lawyer (EUIPO Legal Affairs Department) only served to amplify their importance.

One of the highlights of the conference was the presence of João Negrão, Executive Director of the EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office). His expertise and contributions enriched the event, offering participants an in-depth understanding of the challenges and opportunities in intellectual property.

Presenting our archives: a privilege

We had the opportunity to present our documentary collection with a video and a speech given by Camille Champion in front of a large number of attorneys, lawyers and in-house counsels. Our archives, which consist of thousands of publications on manufactured products (bags, shoes, furniture, tableware, toys, patterns, perfume bottles, jewellery, watches, etc.), are a real asset in helping you to develop your IP strategies, whether through prior art searches on designs, design dating, searches for proofs of trademark use, proofs of trademark notoriety, proofs of the acquisition of distinctiveness through use, etc. Of course, we also carry out searches in other external sources depending on the issue, the sector of activity and the territory targeted.

Lunch sponsorship

An event of this scale deserves impeccable hospitality, and we were delighted to offer the buffet to all the participants. Sharing a moment of conviviality over a meal is always a pleasure.

Together for 2025

Now that the 2024 edition has come to a close, we are delighted to announce that we have also committed to supporting the next edition, which will take place in December 2025. In the meantime, if you’d like to find out more about how we can support you, please ask for our new 2025 price brochure, in which we present our range of services. We are at your side to meet your trademark and designs needs with expertise and dedication.
