Vasil Pavlov invited to present the CTM system in front of Chinese lawyers in Shanghai

Vasil Pavlov – the lead partner in Pavlov & Co held today a lecture on the Community Trademark System before the Shanghai office of the largest law firm in China – the Dacheng Law Office. Communication between the two companies and a visit by Dacheng Senior International Law Consultant Asen Velinov to Bulgaria lead to the prestigious invitation by the Chinese firm.

The ever expanding Chinese economy is getting more and more interested in the European markets and consequently – the need for protection of IP (and trademarks in particular) throughout Europe. This, naturally, means that Chinese law offices are facing new challenges and the interest towards options for using the European Community Trademark System is constantly rising. This is why Dacheng Law Firm expressed interest in having a leading IP attorney such as Vasil Pavlov present this relatively new matter before their IP personnel in the Shanghai Office. Mr. Pavlov gladly accepted this high honor and visited Shanghai on his way to this years’ annual INTA meeting that will be taking place in Hong Kong on May 10-14 2014.
