What is actually meant by brand or product piracy?
- Brand piracy is the illegal use of signs, names, logos (brands) and labels which utilize brand manufacturer to identify their products in trade.
- Product piracy is the prohibited imitation and copying of goods of legal manufacturer who hold the rights for invention, design and procedural law.
The campaign for intellectual property rights on products and processes is very important for Koelnmesse, therefore we made an important step for the trade fair business.
Together with Chinese business partners we signed an „Intellectual Property Memorandum“ on August 20, 2007. It bounds to global information, combined media campaigns and last but not least special activities to significantly limit violations of intellectual property rights.
