Earlier this month, a settlement was agreed between Nike and Hackney Council when the sports clothing and equipment manufacturer agreed to pay the local authority £300k after using the council’s logo without permission.
The settlement attracted much media interest, primarily because it was a small public organisation taking on a major international corporation in a dispute over intellectual property (IP).
