Russia Takes Intel's Celeron Brand

The Intellectual Property Rights Court has revoked the trademark

The Intellectual Property Rights Court has prematurely terminated the legal protection of Intel Celeron trademarks in Russia. The decision was made following a lawsuit by "TS Integration," part of the "T1" holding, according to CNews.

The reason was the non-use of the brands by the American corporation within the period established by law. The termination of protection affected the marks registered under certificates № 179946 and № 184658.

The first trademark protected products of the 9th class of the ICGS, including computer equipment and electronic devices. The second extended to goods and services in classes 9, 35, 38, and 42, covering software, telecommunications, and business services.

The court found that Intel had not used these brands in commercial circulation in Russia during the established period. This provided grounds for the early termination of legal protection at the request of an interested party.

It is worth recalling that the Celeron brand was registered in Russia in 1998. The rights to the trademark were extended in 2008 and 2018. The processor line was used in the segment of budget computers, laptops, and office systems.
