| Abstract: | The problem of ambush marketing has been plaguing the organizers of various sporting and other events for the last four to five years. Due to the enormous financial losses caused by ambush marketing, the sponsors have been reconsidering the decisions to shell out astronomical sums for sponsoring various events. This paper analyses in great detail the concept of ambush marketing to its genesis, the various famous incidents of ambush marketing and the consequential losses and evaluates the existing intellectual property regime in combating this menace. It also analyses the various sui generis legislations framed by countries like South Africa and Australia to combat ambush marketing and tries to cull out a suitable anti-ambush marketing legislative policy for the Indian scenario. |
