The Institute of Export & International Trade has today launched a new series of video learning modules around trade marks (“or trademarks” as they are termed in the USA). We have launched this series in partnership with Virtuoso Legal.
By taking this quick 12 part series, your company will be better able to prepare for the potential legal risks involved in international trade, including infringement defence, registering your trade marks in multiple markets, and franchising and licensing concerns.
You can purchase each video separately or purchase the complete series of 12 videos for £250 +VAT (member price, non-members £310 +VAT), saving £50. The videos are password protected, with the password only shared with you upon the completion of the purchase.
