Webinar: UK Perspectives of the Unified Patent Court

Patent litigation in Europe has undergone a dramatic change with the advent of the Unified Patent Court (“UPC”). Currently around 25% of granted European patents are resulting in a Unitary Patent and there are over 100 Unitary Patents being litigated at the UPC. Injunctions (including preliminary injunctions), damages, and costs are available within rapid timescales, with first instance decisions and appeals within 12 to 15 months.

Eighty-five percent of UPC representatives are patent attorneys and the United Kingdom has over 1,000 registered UPC representatives – the second largest number in Europe. Many of them represent U.S. clients before the UPC.

This live web event will be hosted by the Intellectual Property Owners Association (IPO), with the support of the UK IPO and CIPA.

J A Kemp Partner, Pamela Tuxworth, is one of four panel members with first-hand UPC litigation experience to provide unrivalled insight into the opportunities offered by Europe’s new litigation regime.

This event is only open to members of the IPO. Webinars are FREE for IPO members. Advance registration is required.
