Winterfeldt IP Group's final webinar for 2020, "Smart Holiday Shopping and Selling: Avoiding Counterfeits and Protecting Your Brand," was held on December 3, 2020. We are pleased to make the full video recording available on a complimentary basis! Please see the program details below:

The year-end holiday season can represent up to 40% of annual sales for consumer-facing brands, especially for items that tend to be popular holiday gifts. While the season tends to be a most profitable time of the year for both traditional and online retailers, as well as a most enjoyable time of the year for consumers, the holidays are also a prime period for counterfeiting and infringement due to the volume of sales and high demand for certain products.

Winterfeldt IP Group recently hosted a webinar that explored the impact of the holiday shopping season on intellectual property protection, including the following topics:

• Overview of key enforcement issues facing brand owners as we approach the end of 2020, including the new and increasing challenges brought by the COVID-19 pandemic;

• Discussion of why the holiday season requires extra vigilance for both brand owners and consumers;

• Strategies brand owners can implement quickly and efficiently to reduce incidents of and the impact of infringement and counterfeiting;

• How holiday shoppers can differentiate between authentic and counterfeit products, particularly when shopping on online marketplaces; and

• Whether a brand owner or consumer, how and where to report suspected infringement and counterfeiting.
