Examination Matters 2022

Online conference for patent attorneys

10-14 October 2022 

Examination Matters has become the meeting place for patent attorneys dealing with the EPO in the patent granting procedure. Examiners and practitioners provide insight into the mind of the examiner and the day-to-day work performed. Workshops offer the opportunity to conduct detailed discussions with your peers on relevant aspects of examination, share day-to-day experiences and get immediate answers to your practical questions from EPO examiners, EPO lawyers and epi experts. 

This year's event will focus on several procedural and substantive aspects of examination proceedings, such as parameter features in claims, adaptation of the description, artificial intelligence in additive manufacturing and many other examination related topics. Moreover, sustainability and digital transformation in the patent world will be discussed.

This high-level event is once again organised in close co-operation with the epi. 

Who should attend

This event is intended to patent attorneys who are active in the prosecution of European patent applications before the EPO.
