The European Patent Office (EPO) is once again organizing the annual PATLIB conference, which will be open for professionals outside the PATLIB network. The Conference is intended to exchange experiences, strengthen cooperation and present current topics and tools to support inventors, innovations and the development of the intellectual property at the local and global levels.
During the conference, participants will have the opportunity to learn more about the following topics:
- Innovation in the EU
- Women in intellectual property
- The role of PATLIB centers in global and regional innovations
- Tools to support inventors
PATLIB centers are an important partner for individuals and small businesses in local communities, as they provide expert advice and services related to the protection of intellectual property rights. Serbia, as a member of the European Patent Organization, has its own PATLIB center (Educational and Information Center) in the Intellectual Property Office.
This year, the conference will be complemented by the CodeFest Spring 2025 Awards ceremony, during which the winning solutions for patent data classification in support of sustainable development will be presented.
We invite the representatives of SMEs, entrepreneurs, investors, inventors, intellectual property lawyers, business consultants, as well as experts from the scientific and research community to apply for online participation. Participation is free of charge and registration is mandatory.
