Course description
A registered design is infringed if it a product produces the same overall impression on the informed user. However, in order to enforce the protection of a registered design, you need to have a thorough understanding of what an ‘overall impression’ is and how it is defined by IP law.
Freddie Noble presents this succinct and informative webinar which considers the key issues in this area to equip you with the knowledge required to predict what a judge may decide or advise. It will cover the law on overall impression, including what gets compared and how similar it has to be; the role of the informed user; the relevance of the design corpus and a wide range of illustrative examples.
