From May 17 to May 21, 2025, the International Trademark Association (INTA) Annual Meeting officially took place in San Diego, USA, bringing together thousands of intellectual property experts, attorneys, corporate representatives, and regulatory authorities from over 150 countries.

Continuing its longstanding tradition of attending INTA events, ASL LAW – a leading law firm in intellectual property and corporate legal services in Vietnam – proudly participated as one of the Vietnamese representatives at this globally significant event.
