Protecting Your Brand Abroad: International Trademark Strategies That Work, a FREE WEBINAR
Join Harris Sliwoski attorney Fred Rocafort for a practical, insight-driven webinar on international trademark protection, that will equip you with the essential tools and knowledge you need for international trademark protection beyond borders.
Without a well‑planned international trademark strategy—a clear trademark protection strategy that anticipates cross‑border risks—you're exposing your business to serious threats: brand hijacking, copycats, costly legal battles, and even losing the right to use your own name in key markets.
The good news: with the right approach, you can protect your trademark internationally, expand with confidence, and stay ahead of opportunistic competitors. In just one hour, you'll gain clarity on how to protect your trademarks internationally and avoid costly mistakes.
