Beijing November 10th Obama became the first black president in the history of the United States, attracting worldwide attention.

More than 1 years ago, the smart Wenzhou businessman launched the idea of "Obama" to apply for the registration of "Obama" and "Obama" as trademarks.

However, the industry believes that the possibility of registration is not very successful.

According to the Wenzhou internet report, as early as March 14, 2007, a shoe company in Yongjia applied for the registration of "beauty Obama" as the trademark. The international classification of goods was 25, using goods as belts, clothing, children's wear, sports shoes, hats and so on.

At that time, Obama was still one of the hot candidates for presidential candidates.

In July 17th and 30th of this year, another Wenzhou businessman applied for the registration of "Obama" as a trademark. He wanted to excavate business opportunities in two fields: beer, coke and fitness equipment.

It is not hard to imagine that the value of these trademarks will also increase with the increasing influence of the first black president in American history.

However, all this may be just a beautiful wish.

According to Mr. Yang, Department of legal affairs of Wenzhou Chengda Fangyuan Intellectual Property Office, from the perspective of trademark similarity and non similarity, there should be no problem in the application of the above two trademarks.

However, considering the influence of Obama, the State Trademark Office may reject the application of the trademark on the grounds of "other adverse effects", and the result is likely to be relatively large.
