How can EU SMEs in Latin America take advantage of the Patent Cooperation Treaty?

Patents registered in Europe, being territorial rights, have no legal effect in any of the countries in Latin America. However, through the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) it is possible to seek simultaneous patent protection for an invention in several countries by filing a single “international” patent application instead of filing separate national applications.

Join our webinar on PCT to learn more about the advantages and possible disadvantages of PCT. Our IPR experts will equip you with tips and recommendations on how to utilise the PCT to manage your patent portfolio in developing markets.

During the webinar you can expect:

• Advantages and disadvantages of the System
• How to manage your Patent portfolio with the System
• Region Specific insights (with some insight on the national phase of the PCT).
• Case studies for China/SEA and Latin America
• Take-away messages
