Dirk Kromm entered into his career in Intellectual Property (IP) through a fascination with engineering and physics, for which he holds a university degree. Backed by his certifications in patent and trademark law from Germany and the EU, respectively, he has worked in numerous industrial organizations and IP law firms, with a particular focus on the automotive field.

Dirk Kromm flexed his IP and engineering muscles as a Senior Patent Counsel for one of the world's leading manufacturers of rail and commercial vehicle braking systems and did the same as Manager of Intellectual Property at a globally successful auto company. Dirk Kromm first joined Dennemeyer & Associates as a consultant before returning to his legal roots. Now, as Head of Patents for Dennemeyer & Associates' office in Munich — a position he reached after eight of his nine years with the firm— he blends the outside-the-box thinking of an engineer with the comprehensive knowledge of an IP law expert.

Luxury Beyond Categories: Trademark Strategy In The Wellness Era

Luxury brands are expanding beyond traditional product categories into wellness, hospitality, and experiential services, fundamentally transforming how trademark protection must adapt. As fashion houses open cafés, beauty brands operate spas, and heritage maisons launch wellness programs, the legal framework struggles to keep pace with ecosystem-based diversification that challenges conventional notions of brand boundaries and distinctiveness.
