Readers may be aware that, together with Giulia Gasparin, I am also currently involved in Fashion Law London, an initiative that was born in 2019 to create opportunities of study and discussion, mostly from an IP and IT law perspective, for all those interested in this emerging field of practice and research.

An issue that has come to occupy a significant space in the legal and business spheres recently is that of sustainability. 

Specifically from an IP perspective, one may wonder about the registrability of signs that convey a ‘green’ or ‘sustainable’ message, the lawfulness of certain advertising claims, or the availability of certain regimes (notably: geographical indications for non-agricultural products) and their potential to enhance sustainability, also in the fashion sector.

This is why, on Tuesday, 13 April 2021, Fashion Law London will hold an online live event, titled ‘The New Age of Fashion: Sustainanle Horizons‘, to discuss everything sustainability in fashion, including:

  • The meaning of sustainability;
  • The IP issues facing sustainability;
  • The competition law/antitrust dimension of sustainability;
  • How to embed sustainability policies in the supply chain;
  • Technologies to ensure and track sustainability.
The event will bring together legal and business experts from different backgrounds and fields of practice.
IPKat readers are entitled to a 15% discount in the registration fee, by selecting the ‘IPKat Readers’ Special Ticket’ when completing the registration process.
There is also a reduced fee for full time students, who register with their university email address.
