Matchmark

Matchmark was founded at the end of 1999 a few days before the turn of the millennium by Boudewijn Groen and Misja Nijhuis. Not only is Matchmark a traditional trademark agency, but since its foundation we also have a strong focus on the legal guidance of the creative naming process in the development, creation and introduction of new (brand) names.
