Video games and IP

  • Video games and IP

    Behind every video game, there is an intricate bundle of technical and non-technical IP rights. In the context of a rapidly evolving design, development and commercialisation landscape, identifying what to protect and how to protect it can be something of a challenge.

    This lecture features EPO and EUIPO experts giving an overview of all the IP rights that can be involved in video games. They then discuss how video games are examined in the patent world and how the technical and non-technical features are understood in accordance with the case law.
