The
End of an Era
After more than 100 years in operation, Camden County, New
Jersey’s Clementon Park and Splash World closed in the
fall of 2019. Then the extended restrictions on large gatherings caused by
COVID-19 wiped out any chance of reopening in 2020. It’s sad, but not
surprising, that the park is now up for auction in March.
If your business is faced with a perplexing problem, Asterion can help. Looking at issues in creative ways is what our consultants do best.
New
IP Issues to Ponder
IP always poses interesting questions. Will vendors working
collaboratively help reduce counterfeiting? Who owns
trademark rights to the Rose Bowl?
Can Peloton cancel the 20-year-old
trademark on the term “spinning?” Did Constellation engage in
unauthorized use of the Corona
brand name?
Asterion’s consultants are well versed in IP matters. We can assist you in determining the proper financial evaluation of issues such as these.
FYI
The Trademark
Modernization Act was passed as part of the December 2020 COVID
relief legislation package.
