Webinar: Collaboration with overseas patent colleagues from China

Venue

Online

Description

The webinar series is only for epi Members and epi Students.

"Collaboration with overseas patent colleagues"

In the practice of a patent attorney, it is important to cooperate with colleagues in other countries. Whereas European patent attorneys are generally most knowledgeable about the European and perhaps the national patent systems, it is necessary for them to have some knowledge of the practice in countries in which their clients also want to obtain patent protection. Further, overseas colleagues may have clients that want to obtain European patents, for which these overseas colleagues use European patent attorneys to act as a local patent agent.

In these 4 webinars the speakers will highlight the major differences between the foreign and the European practice, the major communication problems and they will provide you with advice how to best contact and work with foreign patent professionals from countries like China, India, South American countries and the USA.
