AMTD achieves further action against IP infringements

AMTD Group (AMTD), alongside The Generation Essentials Group, a subsidiary of the Group under AMTD Digital (HKD), jointly announce that as a global owner of fashion magazines published under “L’OFFICIEL AMTD” and its associated brands, another successful action has been won against Luxury Village and its director Dimitri Vorontsov for infringing and improper conduct. The company said, “We had previously obtained a Hong Kong court order prohibiting these infringers ordering them to cease prohibited operations under the court order and to relinquish domain names wrongfully incorporating “lofficiel”. Luxury Village LLC continued to operate lofficiel.au than improperly and published digital copies of a “L’Officiel Fashion Book” magazine. AMTD will not tolerate such IP infringement and has successfully obtained an order from the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center against Luxury Village LLC to demand on a transfer of the domain name less lofficiel.au than to us.”
