Beijing Huaqi Information Digital Technology (Huaqi), owner of AIGO, was recently sued by the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT) for using its figurative mark of the Shenzhou spaceship in an AIGO advertisement. According to official records, CALT registered the figurative mark for CZ-2F Launching vehicles as a trademark. Without approval, Huaqi used the registered trademark in an AIGO advertisement. CALT filed a complaint and the Fengtai Court issued an injunction against Huaqi and hand assessed damages of 100 thousand Yuan plus cost.
