Ford Files Opposition to LYNK&CO's Trademark

2017/08/29

Ford Motor Company (Ford) filed opposition to the trademark application of LYNK&CO by the holding company of GEELY in the US, claiming that the English pronunciation of LYNK&CO is similar with Ford’s Luxury brand – Lincoln. The spokesman of Lincoln said that Ford will take all measures in Law to protect its trademark from being infringed by LYNK&CO. The United State Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has approved a grace period for Ford to officially file opposition against LYNK&CO’s trademark. Ford has been allowed to submit the opposition application before November 15. However, the person in charge of GEELY believed that the trade application of LYNK&CO in the US had been not influenced by the opposition filed by Ford.
