Status: Reference Institution
About the Institution
EUIPO administers European Union trade marks and registered EU designs (formerly registered Community designs) and supports intellectual-property enforcement initiatives through the European Observatory on Infringements of Intellectual Property Rights.
Why It Is Relevant to International Publishing
An EU trade mark is a single right covering every EU member state. EUIPO's trade mark and design registers, and the Observatory's research on infringement and counterfeiting, are references for EU brand-enforcement and monitoring reviews.
