The Label Printers’ was invited to participate at UL’s recent Brand Protection Summit in Los Angeles, CA, USA, as an Interactive Round Table Leader. The Summit included UL clients, key law enforcement partners, invited guests, and a select number of brand protection service providers/specialists.
The Label Printers’ topic was “Product Security Solutions – Facing Operational Realities,” and Lori Campbell, The Label Printers’ chief of operations was the Round Table Leader. The keynote speaker for the conference was Todd Rogers, assistant sheriff, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.
UL outlined the event’s purpose and benefits in their Registration/Welcome materials: “For over 15 years, UL has taken an aggressive stance against product counterfeiting through a comprehensive program involving enforcement, education and partnerships with key IP crime stakeholders from around the world. As a leader in product safety testing and certification, as well as a rights holder, UL knows the detrimental effects IP crime can have on a company’s resources, reputation and to its corporate goals.”
William J. Kane, chief executive of The Label Printers, thinks the conference holds value to a wide range of organizations and companies interested in the latest information on brand protection. He said, “Between the FBI and the US Attorney’s Office, we always hear really interesting information about cases they’re prosecuting. The FBI is deeply engaged in the investigation and prosecution of [counterfeiting] criminals, and they emphasize how the buyers of counterfeit goods fund terrorists and organized crime. We heard about a really interesting case involving Nike shoes where the counterfeiter’s excuse was ‘I didn’t know’ – which worked the first time, but not the second.”
