Unitary patent and Unified Patents Court
The implementation of this EU patent package will dramatically change the system for granting patents. Currently, there is no such thing as a single European patent and inventors must maintain individual patents in every relevant country. This new system will allow you the choice to protect your invention in up to 25 EU countries with a single unitary patent. You will also be able to defend unitary patents in a single court action through the Unified Patent Court.
We can advise you on how to be ready to take advantage of the launch of this new system.
