VIVENDI, A WORLD OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that “VIVENDI, A WORLD OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS” is a cancelled Principal Register mark owned by VIVENDI, a société anonyme organized in France, with the cancellation dated June 8 2019 after the underlying international registration was fully cancelled; the prosecution history also notes a total invalidation processed in December 2018. The mark covered a broad range of telecommunications‑related goods and services across classes 009, 016, 035, 038, 041 and 042, including computer terminals, telecommunication apparatus, software for creating and downloading sounds, images and text, printed magazines and brochures about telecom, data‑communication services, advertising over networks, training and entertainment related to media, and various IT‑technology consulting and design services. Because the registration is no longer active, the record does not give the owner control over every use of the words “VIVENDI” or “A WORLD OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS,” but it does indicate a meaningful concern if a similar name is used for comparable telecom or multimedia products or services. The supplied history contains no visible enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations initiated by a third party. I'd treat this as a notable concern for anyone planning a name in the same telecommunications and digital media space.
