Chapter 1 Putting It Into Words Solution

Draft a short paragraph for a letter to a corporate client with numerous trademarks
regarding the benefits of belonging to the International Trademark Association.

[Many of these benefits are discussed on INTA’s website at
http://www.inta.org/Membership/Pages/Membership.aspx.]

“We highly recommend that the company become a member of the
International Trademark Association (“INTA”), a group of more than 6,600
organizations from 190 countries. INTA provides its members with
numerous benefits and resources, including the following:
• Publications and practice guides to help trademark owners remain
current on trademark practices, procedures, and “hot topics”;

• Access to educational opportunities and events, including INTA’s
annual meetings, attended by thousands of trademark owners and
practitioners;
• Opportunities for business development and networking with other
trademark owners; and
• Numerous online resources, including job banks and membership
directories, which facilitate contact with other INTA members, 60
percent of which corporate members are Fortune 100 companies.
Moreover, INTA promotes the interests of its members through its advocacy
efforts by which it fosters effective trademark programs and policies
throughout the world.”
