IDC EQUITY AND INCLUSION EXECUTIVE
Dead · Refused DEAD/APPLICATION/Refused/Dismissed or Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows the mark “IDC EQUITY AND INCLUSION EXECUTIVE” is dead – it was abandoned on Feb 26 2024 because the applicant never filed a required Statement of Use after the Notice of Allowance was issued. The owner listed is INSTITUTE FOR DIVERSITY CERTIFICATION (IDC), INC., a corporation organized in Indiana. The registration covered two classes: Class 016 for printed educational materials such as books, workbooks, manuals, curricula and other teaching publications focused on diversity, equity, inclusion and leadership; and Class 041 for educational services including workshops, training courses, conferences, online newsletters and other instruction in the same fields. A similar name would raise the closest concern if used for comparable diversity‑focused educational content or services, but the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of those words in unrelated areas. The prosecution history shows the application proceeded to allowance and then stalled when the required use statement was never submitted, leading to abandonment; no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to offer similar diversity‑focused educational products or services under a comparable name.
