I am an associate in Bird & Bird´s Intellectual Property department in the Madrid office.

This year in April the European Commission published a proposal for a Regulation on geographical indication protection for craft and industrial products. Currently the proposal is open to public feedback until the 13th July 2022, after that date it will be submitted to legislative debate. Sorin Vilceanu gives BrandWrites a run down on the important bits.
