    September 26, 2024 12:00 PM to 1:30 PM   |   Up to 90 Mins CLE Pending

    The European Patent Office (EPO) has a number of subtleties when it comes to the question of sufficiency of disclosure/enablement. Often a lack of detail can cause a number of downstream problems – particularly the dreaded ‘non-technical’ objections for computer software and objections regarding lack of information/data to support a particular technical effect, for example a medical use, for chemical related inventions. In this webinar, we will share our insights in this area together with our suggested best practices in which you can help to avoid these issues from arising when drafting while still keeping best US practices in mind.
