World Trademark Review

Our latest podcast looks at an EU trademark dispute that has slipped somewhat under the radar in recent months. Specifically, it focuses on a dispute surrounding the protection of the Rubik’s Cube shape as a 3D trademark, and the potential implications should that mark be struck down. We talked to two key figures in the case to explore the legal and the business perspectives: Nick Kounoupias, the external lawyer for Rubik’s Brands, and , Thierry Karpiel, the distributor of the Rubik’s Cube in France. Both had strong views on why this case matters for all IP owners. - Don't forget to subscribe!
