The Global Brand Counterfeiting Report (2018) stated the total value of counterfeit products on a global scale to be US$1.20 trillion in 2017 and expected it to surge by more than US$1.82 trillion by 2020. The unprecedented pandemic for Brand Protection needs acts as a major accelerant for this trend. From Pharma to electronics, health and personal care, opportunistic fraudsters are exploiting this situation by illegally selling counterfeit products in the market. Moreover, with the dramatic increase in e-commerce and online shopping for different categories as a result of this pandemic, a risk of enlarged secondary market of illegitimate products and services is a high probability.

At HP, together with our Solution Partners, we aim to enable the industry to face these challenges and find new innovative cost effective methods to offer superior, never seen before anti-counterfeiting, traceability and consumer engagement solutions.
