For patent searchers and information specialists the EPO Patent Information Conference 2010 in Lausanne is a must. Since its inception in 1991, this annual event has become a major feature of the patent information calendar. The 2010 conference will be organised in co-operation with the Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property (IPI).

The programme will address some of the most important developments in the European patent system of relevance to patent searchers, including:

• the EPO's plans for a "Single Patent Process"
• changes in classification at worldwide level
• efforts to achieve a global common documentation resource for patent searching
• how patent information can contribute to sustainabe IP management
• and, for this year only, an extra session (on 18 October) entitled "Focus on Asia"

The Swiss Federal Institute of Intellectual Property will also host a seminar in French for local industry. 

The event will offer detailed technical discussions in small groups, specialised training courses and Europe's leading patent information exhibition.

The EPO Patent Information Conference is an unrivalled opportunity within Europe to meet all the major players in patent information's commercial sector and the staff of various patent offices.
