On 17 May 2022 the United States District Court of the Northern District of
California issued a court order in which it fully supports Huddly's claim
against the company Suzhou Washeng Technology Co. Ltd. (also known as
"Hamedal").
This means that Hamedal is permanently required to stop all use of trademarks
that the US Trademark Trial and Appeal Board ("TTAB") previously has found to be
infringing on Huddly's trademarks.
"Huddly's success as innovation leader in the videoconferencing market makes it
tempting to steal our intellectual property. This is unacceptable, and the
decision of the United States District Court of the Northern District of
California should serve as a warning to any other parties with similar
intentions. Huddly is stepping up the game to protect our IP and we already see
the results", says Alexander Woxen, CEO of Huddly.
Hamedal must permanently stop any marketing, manufacture, and/or sale of its V20
videoconferencing camera or any other product with a design confusingly similar
to the trade dress of Huddly's videoconferencing cameras Huddly GO or Huddle IQ.
It is also declared that Hamedal wilfully infringes Huddly's federally protected
trademarks and trade dress. Huddly retains the right to pursue damages and cost
in courts of competent jurisdiction and any suitable tribunals upon future
discovery or further information.
On 28 September 2020 Huddly AS initiated a cancellation proceeding with the TTAB
of the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") to cancel Hamedal's
trademark registrations "H" and "Hamedal" on the basis that the trademark
registrations were confusingly similar to Huddly's previously registered
trademarks.
Huddly was successful in the US cancellation proceeding, however Hamedal
continued its use of the infringing trademarks. Hence Huddly followed up with a
lawsuit against Hamedal in the District Court of the Northern District of
California, in order to have a court order that prohibits Hamedal's
infringements of Huddly's intellectual property rights. The lawsuit resulted in
the court order of 17 May 2022 which fully supports Huddly's claim.
