Can a computer-implemented simulation of a technical system or process lead to a granted patent in Europe?

TLIP will be attending an online high-growth technology business forum hosted by the European Patent Office with CEOs and other members of the C-suite to hear live case studies on licensing, build to sell and growth financing to business decision-makers in small and medium-sized technology enterprises.

Alex Turnbull has joined a new diversity think-tank made up of senior leaders from the private sector patent and trade mark professionals. Together with other Firms, TLIP joined to ensure that diversity can be championed in the highest ranks, in partners’ meetings and boardrooms, to ensure it gets the recognition, and the hands-on support, that it deserves.

The European Patent Office announced this week that, from 4 January 2021, all examination and opposition hearings would be held via videoconference by default.
