OVERVIEW

The webinar is designed to increase awareness of the Trademark system in Nigeria generally, and to push for the reform of the Nigeria Trademark legal framework, particularly the Trademarks Act, 1965, which has never been amended or reviewed since its inception; and to provide insights on measures that will help the Trademark system more effective through efficient service delivery of the Trademarks Registry (FMITI) in line with global best practices through interventions by relevant stakeholders and participants.
