Europe’s Patent Information Centres Share Experience in Ljubljana

2018/05/17

Some 200 representatives from 36 countries gathered in Ljubljana at the EPO's 2018 PATLIB conference to discuss how best to support companies and inventors through their patent information services. The event, organised annually since 1990, brings together staff of patent information centres to share their experience and knowledge in providing information and advice on intellectual property at local level.
Topics discussed included bilateral co-operation between the EPO and SIPO, and recent developments related to the planned Unitary Patent system, which is expected to cut costs and formalities, while providing greater legal certainty for European companies and inventors.
