1319 GMT - Adidas is among the most mentioned companies across
news items over the past 12 hours, according to Factiva data after
the German sportswear company said it wouldn't oppose the attempt
by Black Lives Matter to trademark its logo. Adidas had said in a
filing this week to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office that the
campaign group's proposed use of three stripes was "confusingly
similar" to its own. In 2020, the campaign group submitted an
application to trademark its logo which contains three parallel
yellow lines. Adidas said Wednesday that it will drop its
opposition to the BLM logo "as soon as possible," without
specifying further. Dow Jones & Co. owns Factiva.
