Countdown to the Unified Patent Court: is your business ready for change?

Europe is about to experience the single biggest overhaul of its patent system, with the introduction of the unitary patent and unified patent court (UPC). In this session, Pinsent Masons’ European patent experts explore what this means for your business.

Recent developments indicate that the UPC is likely to become operational this year. This new European patent system aims to make the patent process more cost effective and improve the level of patent protection in the participating member states. As a result, businesses will be faced with new and alternative strategic patent commercialisation and litigation choices. Is your business ready? 

Our webinar series over the next few months will help unravel the complexities around the UPC, shed light on what you need to know and answer your burning questions on how to protect your business’ interests in a shifting landscape.

In this session, we take a look at how the new unitary patent and UPC system will work and what immediate steps you may need to take to ensure your business is ready.
