Well said Marco!
#counterfeiting is a crime that often goes unnoticed. It causes significant harm to the legitimate economy, deprives governments of resources, poses a threat to the environment, exploits workers, and funds organized crime and terrorist groups. @UNICRI tv2000.it/today/?p=7611

Unbelievable! The USA at its smartest……. Not!

Is this an objective statistical question or a crude attempt gather some very minority opinions about ‘society’?
What double standard in society goes generally unnoticed or without being called out?

Good presentation my friends. Keep it up.
We are delighted to attend @WIPO Advisory Committee on Enforcement and share best practice on IP enforcement with colleagues globally. Our team presented an update on the self storage Tick Box Scheme, a scheme aiming to reduce the appeal of facilities to criminals selling fakes.

And there is a high price paid to the UK economy on annual sales lost through counterfeitting, just because we have left the EU, we must be just as vigilant to prevent unsafe goods being peddled.
A fake product isn't cheap - it comes at a high cost for the economy and for your health. New data reveal that counterfeits cost the toy🎮, cosmetics💄and clothing🧥 industries €16 billion and the loss of 200 000 jobs every year: euipo.europa.eu/en/news/coun…

*Fewer* ……
Less counterfeit goods were stopped at the EU external border last year, while detentions within the EU increased by over 25%, according to the EUIPO and @EU_Taxud. Infringers avoid detentions by shipping cheap packaging material separately from the valuable IP infringing goods.

This is quite staggering.

There is - just north of you map!
They have a Black Sea now? When will there be a White Sea?

Don’t be daft. I bet more than half can name it. You’re probably thinking of people from the USA most of whom don’t recognise anything beyond their town boundaries.
99.999% of europeans can't name this country

Do you know the real cost of fakes? Although buying a counterfeit might seem harmless, criminals selling these goods often commit more serious crimes such as drug trafficking and money laundering. We shared these insights with the public earlier this year in Manchester.
