Patent knowledge lectures
Join our next online lecture on patent documentation basics
At our upcoming online lecture you can learn about different kinds of patent documents - including European patents, international patent applications filed under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCTs), patent applications submitted under the PCT and equivalent to a European patent (Euro-PCTs) and national patents - and find out how they may end up as European patents.
Beyond offering insights into patent documentation, this lecture will also teach you how to perform effective searches in Espacenet and its integrated Common Citation Document tool. You will also learn how to find and interpret legal status and event information in the Register and Espacenet.
Patent documentation basics on 2 October 2024 at 11.00 hrs. The seminar will be presented in English and will last around 60 minutes.
More seminars are scheduled for the end of October and we will keep you posted in Patent Knowledge News.
But if you want to be the first to know about all upcoming seminars, why not sign up for our alert service for learning events.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
