how patentability requirements are assessed at the EPO and what objections might be raised during the process. It
includes a number of examples of different situations.
Examination
Matters has become the go-to event for patent attorneys interested in finding
out more about the patent granting procedure at the EPO. This year's event
focused on several procedural and substantive aspects of examination proceedings, such as parameter features in claims, adaptation of the description, artificial intelligence in additive manufacturing and many other examination related topics.
Moreover, sustainability and digital transformation in the patent world were discussed.
This
year’s event was once again organised in close co-operation with the epi.
Applying for a patent can be a complex undertaking, with many different aspects to consider. The two modules that take you through the Guide for Applicants give an insight into the procedure to be followed when examining European applications and patents
in accordance with the European Patent Convention. The module on oral proceedings also shows you what happens in such proceedings relating to the examination procedure before the EPO.
This self-paced course explains the role of the EPO as appointed international searching authority and international preliminary examining authority in the process of search and examination of patent applications.
