Legelata’s team ensured that Financial Time’s world-known trademark (FT) is duly protected in Armenia and succeeded in the rejection of a local trademark application that was similar to the extent of confusion to the world-known trademark of Financial Times Ltd.
The trademark “FT” is not registered in Armenia; however, Financial Times is one of the world’s leading business information companies – publishes the world known newspaper, Financial times (since 1800s) and operates the website of www.ft.com having several thousand users in Armenia.
Our specialists were able to justify that a trademark application in Armenia similar to the well-known “FT” trademark and requested by a local Armenian company operating in the financial sector would first of all create a confusion and then place the local company in an unjustified superior position due to the popularity of the trademark “FT”.
The issue was led and successfully closed due to efforts of Alla Hakhnazaryan, Partner at Legelata LLC.
Legelata advises Financial Times Ltd on protecting trademark in Armenia.
