As in other consumer industries, brands are central to British American Tobacco’s (BAT) business. With innovation at the core of the company’s global growth strategy, the inhouse legal team is tasked with performing rapid research for a continuous stream of new brands destined for markets around the globe.

To meet the challenge, she relies on CompuMark’s™ TM go365™ self-service trademark research solution.
