The case law on Industrial Property is rich and varied. Moreover, if we add to it the resolutions of intellectual property and unfair competition, the interest multiplies. For that reason, from the OEPM we have decided to initiate a series of periodical publications with the most relevant judgments on industrial property, intellectual property, and unfair competition.

Counterfeits in the 21st century

Consumers are surrounded by counterfeits, sometimes without being aware of it. Everything from textiles, cosmetics, electronic components, appliances, spare parts for all kinds of machinery, toys, and medicines can be falsified. The consequences of the accelerated development of this criminal phenomenon are very serious and create the evolution of the different economic activities. The seriousness of the situation and the scale on which it moves makes it necessary to not only police and legally prosecute, but also to create a radical change in the social perception of this crime and a change in the mentality of consumers that prioritizes quality over to quantity, revaluing work and talent.
