HGF Retail Webinars: The rise of Non-Fungible Tokens

January 2022

Event date: 19th April 2022

HGF is holding a series of webinars this Spring, covering three different topics:

  • Upcycling, recycling and resale: the impact on fashion and fashion retail
  • Exhaustion of rights: will the UK introduce an international exhaustion of rights regime and what is its impact of retail?
  • The rise of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) and its impact on retailers and fashion

The third webinar in this series is The rise of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) and its impact on retailers and fashion:

Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), are they a fad or here to stay? What will be their impact on the protection of IP rights, particularly in the world of fashion and retail? NFTs such as virtual clothing and products raise important questions over how they are protected and how their rise could potentially impact the enforcement of IP rights and historic settlement agreements.

We consider all these issues in a discussion of the impact of NFTs on the world of fashion and retail.

Speakers: Rachel Platts and Suzan Ure, Trade Mark Attorneys
