Join EIP Partners Florian Schmidt-Bogatzky, Matt Jones and Monika Rai for a review of the approach taken by the EPO Technical Boards compared and contrasted with that of National Courts in Germany and the UK.

Monika will review EPO’s approach on admission of new material in appeal proceedings and discuss recent case law. Matt will discuss the stance of UK Courts regarding amendment in patent cases and Florian will discuss the approach of German Courts focusing on complexities and opportunities due to the bifurcated system.

They have become the key building block in developing and existing markets, including quantum computing, edge computing, AI, IoT, automotive, cellular data technology, smartphones, robotics, and many more. The complex designs and innovations that power semiconductor manufacturing are invaluable both to the world’s economy and technological advancement.
