Supreme Court declares Verkkokauppa.com mark to be well known and worthy of protection

In Verkkokauppa.com v Veneilijänverkkokauppa.com the Supreme Court has quashed two lower-court decisions, ruling in favour of the owner of Finnish trademark Verkkokauppa.com. The action was based on the 2004 registered word trademark covering "retail and e-commerce" in Class 35.
