Marc H. Trachtenberg to Speak at WTR’s Brand Protection Online USA

CHICAGO – March 3, 2020Marc H. Trachtenberg, a shareholder in the Chicago office of global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP, will be a speaker at WTR’s Brand Protection Online USA event on March 4, 2020.

Greenberg Traurig is also a sponsor of the event.

Trachtenberg’s session, “Joining the dots: enforcing across social networks and apps,” will discuss how brand protection experts must stay ahead of infringers becoming increasingly savvy with their tactics to avoid traceability and shutdown.
