PASSION FOR CONNECTIONS
Live · Registered LIVE/REGISTRATION/Issued and Active
What this record means
The record shows that “PASSION FOR CONNECTIONS” is a live Principal Register trademark owned by Lumberg Holding GmbH & Co. KG, and it is currently active after a Section 71 and 15 declaration was accepted on Nov 5 2024. The registration covers Class 007 machines for manufacturing connectors and cable sets, Class 008 hand tools used in making those connectors, and Class 009 electric, electronic and electromechanical apparatus such as cables, connectors, switches, sensors and related equipment. A similar name used for products or services in those technical areas would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside of connector‑related hardware fall farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “passion for connections.” No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history shows an initial refusal that was overcome before the mark entered the Principal Register. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name in the same connector‑hardware space.
