Live · Registered
Owner: Illinois Manufacturers' Association
Class 035 - Advertising & Business
Filed Mar 31, 2020
Registered Feb 09, 2021
The record shows that the mark “IMA” is live and registered on the Principal Register under serial 88854161, owned by the Illinois Manufacturers' Association, a corporation organized in Illinois. It covers services in class 035, specifically association services that promote the interests of Illinois manufacturers and manufacturing workers through public advocacy. A similar name used for comparable association or advocacy services in the same geographic area would raise the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “IMA”; it applies only to the listed services and location. The prosecution history shows a standard examination with a final refusal in August 2020, followed by amendments and eventual registration in February 2021. The most recent status event is the acceptance of Sections 8 and 15 declarations in May 2026, with the next relevant date being the May 13, 2026 status date. No enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of this active registration in the same service area suggests a meaningful risk of conflict.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
