«Китайская угроза» или новые партнеры? Регистрация товарного знака для товаров из КНР под российскими брендами

Российские селлеры уже давно действуют так: сначала выбирают нишу, придумывают и регистрируют бренд, затем — закупаются на оптовом рынке КНР (напрямую, через сервис закупки или китайский маркетплейс), далее — перепродают товары здесь. Эта схема иногда становится крайне рисковой: дело в том, что китайские бизнесмены, получив заказ, нередко копируют чужой товарный знак, регистрируют его на себя в своем государстве, а потом «блокируют» предпринимателей-инициаторов цепочки.

FIRE: когда Цифра становится ответом на вопрос, который человек не может себе задать

Если вы хоть раз ловили себя на мысли «ещё лет пять-семь — и можно будет всё бросить», у этой мысли есть имя, инфраструктура и сорокалетняя история.
