FIDE

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “FIDE” was once registered on the Principal Register but has since been cancelled. The owner listed is Aptronix, Inc., a California corporation. The mark covered fuzzy‑logic based computer software for a wide range of commercial applications, including automotive, aerospace, appliance, chemical, general manufacturing, civil engineering, finance, and educational uses, along with user manuals sold as a unit. Because the goods are software and related documentation, a similar name used in those or closely related fields would raise the closest record‑based concern. The cancellation was due to the registrant failing to file an acceptable declaration under Section 8, and the last meaningful event was the cancellation on February 17, 2001. No opposition, extension, or court action appears in the supplied history, so the record shows no visible enforcement activity. If you are thinking of using a similar name for software or related services, this history suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in those areas.
