Clients warmly endorse Imogen Fowler at Hogan Lovells for her “technical know-how, commerciality and crystal clear communication”. She is “running the show” in Alicante, thanks to her broad experience managing global trademark and design strategies.
Who's Who Legal, Trademarks, 2018
Imogen Fowler works with brand owners to proactively protect and enforce their trademarks and designs across Europe and globally, from brand inception and strategy through to searching, filing, enforcement, anti-counterfeiting and commercialization. Based in Alicante, Spain, the home of the European Union Intellectual Property Office, Imogen advises clients in multiple European languages and has extensive experience in intellectual property laws across the Europe region.
Having managed the prosecution and enforcement of more than 25,000 trademarks and 5,000 designs across the Europe region for Mars, one of the world's largest FMCG companies, in an outsourced role, Imogen understands how to work alongside business teams to develop new brands, manage risks and drive brand recognition. She also manages the European and global portfolios of many other well-known and innovative brand owners in the FMCG, food and beverage, fashion and luxury goods, life sciences, TMT and media and entertainment industries.
She has extensive experience in handling European Union trademark and design matters, including achieving registration of non-traditional trade marks such as position marks and colour marks and advising on complex strategies in European Union trademark oppositions and cancellations. She also regularly handles appeals from decisions of the European Union Intellectual Property Office to the General Court in Luxembourg. Triple qualified as a solicitor in England and Wales, Ireland and New Zealand, clients describe Imogen as 'a truly engaged business partner' and say that “Her ability to navigate complex IP matters and disseminate them into practical, understandable advice is impeccable.”
