Organised by the European Patent Office (EPO) and European Innovation Council (EIC/EISMEA), with the support of the European IP Helpdesk, the event focuses on the implications of the Unitary Patent system, highlighting how growth-oriented tech businesses can leverage its benefits to monetize intellectual property. It will explore how both the Unitary Patent and traditional European/national patent systems can be used to support different business cases and IP transactions.
