Overview

This book looks back on 25 years of pioneering EU trade mark practice, as viewed by various experts from all over Europe. EU trade mark law - and by extension, trade mark law of the EU Member States - has substantially evolved during these past 25 years. The success of the EU trade mark resulted in a shift from a 'bottom-up' harmonization of national trade mark systems to a 'top-down' approach, based on the EU trade mark system. The first two contributions focus on the EUIPO's convergence efforts with the national trade mark offices and the impact of EU case law on national trade mark practice, respectively. Further on the evolution of the EU trade mark system is addressed through a wide variety of subjects of substantive law. The last chapter offers and analysis of the impact of Brexit on EU trade marks.
