The Department of Intellectual Property (DoIP) in collaboration with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has successfully conducted a virtual training on trademarks with focus on well-known marks on March 23, 2021. The virtual training is organized with the objective to improve the expertise of the trademark examiners of DoIP relating to issues of well-known marks during the registration of trademark as well as other related aspects of trademark examinations.<\/p>\n
The training was conducted virtually in view of the COVID-19 pandemic and was facilitated by the experts from the USPTO. This virtual training is a part of series of collaborations between the DoIP and the USPTO following the formalization of a Memorandum of Understanding in June, 2020 between the two agencies.<\/p>\n
It is expected that such increased cooperation and assistance from the leading IP Offices from around the world such as with the USPTO will not only lead to a skilled and professional workforce but could also enhance the structural and institutional set-up in the DoIP.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
