A Historic Milestone for ICLS!

Hello everyone,


We are excited to share some fantastic news!

After more than three years of dedicated work and ongoing collaboration with our legal team and the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), we are delighted to announce that the International Cinema Lighting Society has successfully completed federal trademark registration for all three of our core intellectual property assets:

  • International Cinema Lighting Society®
  • ICLS®
  • ICLS Logo®

This is a significant milestone in the history of our Society. These registrations provide legal protection for our name, acronym, and visual identity, while strengthening the ICLS brand as we continue to grow and represent the global cinema lighting community.

This achievement would not have been possible without the dedication and support of those who contributed throughout this process. Thank you to everyone who helped us reach this important milestone.

Together, we continue to build a stronger, more recognized, and enduring International Cinema Lighting Society.

With appreciation,


ICLS Secretariat
