Editor's Summary . Cases Referred to . Judgment . [1] Intellectual property ­ Trade marks ­ Registration of shape as trade mark ­ Where shape is not intended to be used to distinguish owner's products from those of another, it cannot be regarded as a trade mark ­ Application for expungement from trade marks register therefore allowed. Editor's Summary Both parties involved in the present matter were players in the pharmaceutical industry. The Appellants sought the upholding of a trade mark for the shape of a tablet, and a finding that the Respondent had infringed the trade mark. The Respondent imported a tablet with the same composition and shape as that of the Appellants. In the court a quo, the Respondent applied for the expungement from the trade mark register of the shape trade mark. The Appellants launched a counter­application for relief for trade mark infringement. The latter application failed while that of the Respondent succeeded. Held ­ Interested parties may apply to court for the removal of an entry wrongly made or remaining on the trade mark register. The first question posed by the Court was whether the Appellants' shape mark constituted a trade mark in terms of section 10(1) of the Trade Marks Act 194 of 1993 ("the Act").

  • Benetton Colours Debut in Printemps Haussmann, Iconic Shopping Destination in Paris
    BENETTON COLOURS DEBUT IN PRINTEMPS HAUSSMANN, ICONIC SHOPPING DESTINATION IN PARIS United Colors of Benetton continues to expand its distribution network, bringing the premium level collections to the most prestigious department stores Ponzano Veneto, 30th August 2019 - After partnering with London’s Selfridges, an historic address for international shopping, Paris temple of shopping Printemps Haussmann, has also chosen the United Colors of Benetton collections. On the third floor of the department store - located in the heart of Paris, on Boulevard Haussmann - Benetton Group has inaugurated the new United Colors of Benetton space. Dedicated entirely to women, the new corner inside the prestigious location will host the garments of the Fall- Winter 2019/2020 collection by Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, artistic director of the brand since October 2018. A celebration of the brand's DNA, in which colourful energy, Italian knitwear expertise, creative details and sporty-chic spirit mix together and bring a contemporary, pop universe to life. The Benetton space inside Printemps Haussmann, covering an area of 200 square metres, is divided into two areas: one dedicated to the premium collections, the other housing knitwear garments that give life to a great colour theatre. The two areas are connected by coloured threads that recall the characteristic “stitch” of the United Colors of Benetton logo, located at the entrance of the Benetton area. The coloured thread extensions radiate into the space, taking various forms and directions: starting as hanging rails to display the collection, they transform into multi-coloured paths that lead to the Benetton garments displayed in the "Color Theatre", where the iconic knitwear line is celebrated.

  • Explaining Corporate Success Abstract
    Explaining corporate success: Britain’s best performing firms, 1949-1985 D.M. Higgins, S. Toms The York Management School Abstract The paper synthesises theories of competitive advantage in a dynamic framework to explain the determinants of corporate success. A model is presented linking the firm’s resource audit and dynamic capabilities with the rate of market growth. For the purposes of testing the model, an examination of the performance of all British quoted companies during the period is conducted with reference to achieved long run average rates of return on capital employed. The best performing firms are analysed in more detail and their strategies mapped according to the model criteria. Conclusions are then drawn on the possible strategies for achieving long run corporate success in terms of above average financial returns. Correspondence Steven Toms Joint Editor: Business History Professor of Accounting and Finance and Head of School The York Management School Sally Baldwin Buildings University of York York YO10 5DD Tel: (44) 1904-434122 Fax: (44) 1904-433 431 Email: [email protected] http://www.york.ac.uk/management/staff/StaffProfiles/SToms.htm 1 Explaining corporate success: Britain’s best performing firms, 1949-1985 1. Introduction Competitive advantage and more specifically sustained competitive advantage and its determinants, has become an important research topic in the business and management and industrial organisation literatures. Sustained competitive advantage (SCA) implies not just achieving superior returns, but achieving them over a protracted period of time. It is therefore surprising that the overwhelming majority of this literature has not explored the notion of sustained competitive advantage from a historical perspective.

    People on the Move Marco Boglione and Adriano Moraglio Slowly please, I’m in a hurry Entrepreneur is cool! Basic Edizioni All rights reserved © 2009 Marco Boglione and Adriano Moraglio, Torino Original title «Piano piano che ho fretta» Printed in Torino, Italy Release 1.1.1 English translation by Daniel Monti ISBN 978-88-905499-1-5 To our children FOREWORD A corrispondence A friendship Marco and I have known each other for some time. I started to take an interest in him as a journalist when he was filling institutional posts, to be precise from the time he became president of Film Commission and later took up the same post for ITP (Investment in Turin and Pied- mont), the Agency devoted at the time to attracting foreign investors to Piedmont. When I met him I liked him immediately. Moreover it was clear that he had decided to offer his experience as an entrepreneur to a public body for a set period without seeking any profit whatsoever, profit being the purpose of any entrepreneurial venture. In spring 2008 I fancied a chat with him again so I set up a meeting. I did not have to interview him for my newspaper or gather information on his group, BasicNet, owner of the famous Kappa, Robe di Kappa, Jesus Jeans, Superga, K-Way brands. The last time I had seen him it had been at a jazz evening I had organized: he attended with his “wife” Stella (I’ll explain the meaning of the in- verted commas later). I told him I loved pizza and he invited me to that extraordinary pizzeria known as Fratelli La Cozza, behind BasicNet’s headquarters in Torino, under the very roof that saw the dawn of local industrial activity in 1916, when Abramo Vitale – a second name that will play a fundamental part in Marco Boglione’s existence – established Società Anonima Calzificio Torinese.
