    The Just Eat case that could change the gig economy | Commercial Awareness Compass #82

    A massive legal battle involving more than 7,000 Just Eat couriers has dragged the gig economy back into the cultural limelight, as they seek new employment rights. So far, this has raised questions about workers’ rights, corporate business models, and the sustainability of flexible labour across the entire UK economy. As traditional delivery platforms face intense judicial scrutiny, multinational corporations are bracing for potential operational shocks that could completely dismantle their low-cost employment structures.  Will this massive claim permanently rewrite the rules of flexible engagement? Can digital platforms survive a complete overhaul of their workforce economics? And how are lawyers helping?

    How FIFA’s clean site policy is disrupting stadium naming rights | Commercial Awareness Compass #81

    Iconic stadium sponsors are being covertly hidden at FIFA’s request during the 2026 World Cup. Stadiums like the Levi’s Stadium are being renamed to the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium and all traces of these sponsors are being erased as part of FIFA’s ‘clean site policy’. Multi-million-dollar deals have been suspended during the biggest live sporting event these stadiums will see, as hundreds of millions of people tune in to watch their national teams play, and there is seemingly nothing these brands can do. How are FIFA able to force companies to suspend their naming rights? Who gets to show their logos instead? And how can a brand turn this into a marketing one-nil?

    Market stability on the line after Kier Starmer’s resignation | Commercial Awareness Compass #80

    Sir Keir Starmer has announced his resignation as Prime Minister (PM) and leader of the Labour Party, plunging the British government into yet another sudden transition, just two years after the last general election.  This resignation makes Starmer the sixth UK PM since the 2016 Brexit vote. As it stands, Andy Burnham is the pundits’ favourite to take over, and corporate boardrooms are preparing for a new regime to come in with him. What can unexpected tax changes do to corporate balance sheets? Why might international investors stall transactions during political contests? And how do commercial lawyers prepare their clients for every eventuality?

    Why Jellycat is taking top British retailers to court over smiley croissants | Commercial Awareness Compass #79

    Currently, UK’s top lawyers are looking very closely at smiley croissants, as premium plush toys have become the newest trademark battleground.  British brand, Jellycat, has issued legal claims against retailers Hamleys, Next, and Bessie London for trademark infringement and passing off, claiming they are copying the manufacturer’s distinctive smiley-faced, anthropomorphic plush toys and accessories.  Meanwhile, the retailers are capitalising on social media virality by flooding the market with cheaper lookalikes, sometimes even in the same shops as genuine Jellycats. Why would an authorised reseller risk its contract to sell lookalikes? Can a brand protect anthropomorphic foods? And is there a new dupe culture shifting risk appetites?

    The one dollar lawsuit between Patagonia and Pattie Gonia | Commercial Awareness Compass #77

    If you’ve been browsing TikTok lately you might have been wondering why everyone is suddenly worried about South American mountains, a clothing company and a drag queen. This isn’t the set up to a bad joke, but rather a high-profile trademark battle between clothing giant Patagonia and drag artist Pattie Gonia over $1 and name rights. On their side, Patagonia claim they are only doing this to protect their trademark so it can be defended in future. Meanwhile Pattie argues they are trying to bury them in legal fees and aren’t as ethical as they claim.  How should a big brand navigate legal proceedings that are playing out in public? What legal metrics do courts use to measure trademark similarity? And how do corporate lawyers balance legal protection with ethical corporate identities?

    It’s a red card for Oddschecker’s latest advertising campaign | Commercial Awareness Compass #76

    Should putting football stars like Harry Kane and Erling Haaland on your advert get it banned in the UK? When companies spend millions to get elite talent to promote their services, generally their legal teams expect they can actually run their ads. However, Oddschecker recently had their gambling adverts featuring the two strikers banned by the UK’s ASA due to the risk posed to children. On Oddchecker’s side, they argued the ad was only pushed to over-18 accounts on Instagram, but for the regulators, this was not enough. Why did automated age filters fail to prevent a major regulatory breach? How do companies balance regulatory compliance and promotion? And what does this mean for the footballers' brands ahead of the World Cup?

    Is it time for delivery apps to rethink alcohol service? | Commercial Awareness Compass #75

    A recent tragic passing has shone a light on the dangers of delivery apps serving alcohol. Campaigners are now demanding strict regulatory overhaul for platforms like Deliveroo and Uber Eats as they argue on-demand, home-delivered alcohol is enabling alcoholism and allowing addiction to stay hidden. Currently, app operators are resisting calls to limit alcohol deliveries, arguing they are observing licensing laws. How will tighter licensing frameworks impact the financial viability of independent online merchants? Can data analytics identify addiction patterns without violating consumer privacy? And how do lawyers balance social pressure with profits?
