Dr. Ruth Corbin to chair panel at 2018 AIPPI World Congress in Cancun

Dr. Ruth Corbin will be moderating a panel at the AIPPI World Congress on September 25th in Cancun on international gold standards for survey evidence.  She is being joined by judges from China and the UK, a regulator from the European IP Office, and a recognized European survey expert.  The session: “Surveying the field – A gold standard for survey evidence” will provide valuable background for a possible AIPPI resolution on standards for survey evidence in trademark disputes, including issues of confusion, parasitism/dilution and acquired distinctiveness.
