Against brand and product piracy

Messe München GmbH

In order to protect the industrial property rights of its exhibitors, bauma has introduced an extensive catalogue of measures. In addition to an anti-plagiarism clause in its terms and conditions of participation and a general ban on photography, it is also making an information stand available at the West Entrance (EW.28) for the customs authorities and the German Patent and Trade Mark Office.

At the instigation of Messe München the District Court of Munich is keeping slots free for court hearings in connection with bauma. This means interim injunctions can be brought faster. The applicant should mark clearly on his application that it concerns an urgent trade-fair matter, and note down the name of the trade fair – bauma – and the dates for the fair.
