In today's competitive marketplace, co-branding has emerged as a powerful marketing strategy that enables brands to leverage each other’s strengths to enhance visibility and consumer loyalty. However, co-branding arrangements present unique intellectual property (IP) challenges and risks, such as trademark dilution and loss of IP rights, that companies need to be aware of to avoid any IP/commercial pitfalls in co-branding efforts.

Join us as we explore the key IP/commercial issues that arise in co-branding collaborations and empower you with practical strategies to navigate throughout the lifecycle of co-branding endeavors, from the negotiations and drafting of co-branding/collaboration agreements to the IP protection and commercialization of the joint works, paving the way for successful partnerships.
