In our third episode, CIE Legal co-hosts, Raph Goldenberg and Kaye Ho, went undercover with Craig Douglas, owner of Nationwide Research Group, an Australia-wide specialist research and investigations company, focussing on brand protection.

This episode delves into the ins and outs of  Craig’s 40-year career as an investigator and how the industry has continued to evolve with the introduction of new technologies. 

With over 40 years of experience, listen in as Craig teaches our team tricks of the trade from how to distinguish counterfeit and genuine goods, to protecting website domains from cybersquatters and helping companies protect the value of their brands. He also emphasises the current difficulties he faces when attempting to stop counterfeit products from being sold due to the limited powers of the state police when it comes to searching and seizing these goods. 

If you want to learn how to discern if the products that you’re buying are authentic or what a career of chasing bootleggers from concerts to sporting events would be like, then this podcast is for you.
