Inside IP Mini-Podcast Series Episode 4: “If the shoe fits…copyright protection for designs in Germany and the UK”
In the next episode of our podcast series, join Richard Dissmann (partner, Munich) and William Wortley (associate, London/Munich) as they discuss one of the most contentious copyright questions of recent years: what copyright protection should be given to works of applied art? Richard gives an overview of the legal landscape following a series of decisions from the CJEU in recent years, and he and William compare the German and British approaches following the recent Birkenstock and Waterrower decisions. Hot on the heels of the AG Opinion in Mio/Konektra, this timely discussion is not something you will want to miss.
