Protecting Ecommerce with Paolo Emilio Ascoli

In this conversation, David Cooper, CEO of IPSecure, interviews Paolo Emilio Ascoli, the Director of Ecommerce for Corsearch, about the convergence of brand protection and ecommerce.

Paolo’s background in intellectual property law serves as an excellent foundation for his role at Corsearch, a world leader in intelligent trademark and brand protection solutions, where he plays a key role in protecting brands online.

In this wide-ranging four-part episode, David and Paolo discuss how online venues create amazing opportunities for reaching customers and unique challenges for protecting brands. Without an active brand protection strategy, brands face declining sales due to rogue sellers, gray market sales, and price erosion.

While online platforms dedicate resources to combating brand abuse on their platforms, today’s savvy brands know that they must include brand protection programs in their ecommerce strategies, just as they do digital advertising, social commerce, and inventory management.

As Paolo notes, “Brand protection and ecommerce are a cost of doing business.” Join David and Paolo in sharing their decades of experience in protecting brands online as they discuss the ideal brand protection strategy, how legislation could help, what the marketplaces could do better and whether AI will affect brand protection.
