Today we were happy to host Mr. Simone Bongiovanni, Ms. Elisa Tricerri, and Ms. Kumiko Kunichika from the Italian firm Studio Torta. They were kind enough to provide us with a presentation on anti-counterfeiting measures in Italy and the EU, as well as factors taken in to account when assessing similarity of both trademarks and their relative goods and services. We also discussed how to respond to particular opposition and office action situations.
