Introduction:

Trademarks are assets that last forever. But without proper care, the asset can erode in value. The speaker will touch on how trademarks lose their value when they become generic –like what happened in the past with the trademarks ASPIRIN, ESCALATOR, ZIPPER, CELLOTAPE) and how to avoid that with your marks!
