Introduction：
The Japan Patent Office (JPO) has worked on international cooperative efforts in the trademark system under the framework of the Trademark Trilateral since 2001, which was formed among the Japan Patent Office (JPO), the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM), and the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Furthermore, since 2012, two more offices have been added to this multinational, cooperative effort; namely the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO), and the State Administration for Industry & Commerce (SAIC) of the People's Republic of China. As a result, this newly established cooperative framework is now called the TM5.
This year, the TM5 Annual Meeting will be held in Tokyo, Japan, in December 2014, under the theme of “Enhance the International Cooperation towards the User Friendly Trademark Systems.” In particular, at the user session on trademarks during the Meeting, the JPO plans to have representatives from each TM5 office make presentations about their respective offices on “Recent Developments in the Field of Trademarks”. The JPO also will hold a panel discussion on “Non-Traditional Trademarks.”
The user session will be free of charge and open to anyone interested in the trademark systems in the respective countries and regions. We sincerely look forward to seeing you at the user session, but please note that in order to attend this session, you will need to register in advance with the JPO.
