> After qualifying as a solicitor in the City of London, Marie moved to Brussels
> in 1993 and worked in private practice before joining AIM, the European Brands
> Association, in 2000. As AIM represents the branded goods industries in Europe
> on key issues which affect the ability of brand manufacturers to design,
> distribute and market their brands, Marie's role encompasses coordination of the
> association's vital brand protection work. Via its Trade Mark Committee, AIM is,
> inter alia, a founder member of the OHIM (EU trademark office) Users Group, an
> observer to the OHIM Administrative Board and an observer at WIPO. The AIM
> Anti-Counterfeiting Committee brings together AIM's members with other right
> holders and their associations in the largest such network actively fighting
> counterfeiting and piracy at European level. Marie thus works closely with all
> European institutions engaged in IP and brand protection matters and with the
> relevant experts, particularly in trade mark administration, protection and
> enforcement, from the members of AIM and the wider industry.
