Brands Forum 2025

London

2. Dezember 2025

Join us for this year's Brands Forum, where we will be discussing how to mitigate the risk of using AI to create and promote brands, how the Supreme Court decision on post-sale confusion will impact clearance and enforcement, and critical supply chain vulnerabilities for brands.

You'll also hear from our team on the latest case law developments and from our brand owner clients on their real-world challenges.

New for this year is an optional brands surgery session for those who want to stay on and discuss any brand issues with our team. Whether you have a particular question, would like to discuss strategy, or simply want to hear insights from our experts we'd be delighted if you would join us.
