This year's "East meets West" will again provide a platform for providers of patent data from Asia and other countries to exhibit their services in a poster session alongside the conference. In order to allow sufficient time to visit the posters during all the breaks, the poster session area will already be opened on the first day, Thursday, 11 April 2019, at 09.00 hrs.
On Friday, 12 April 2019, we will start the morning with a breakfast and a dedicated time slot from 8.30 to 9.30 hrs to visit the posters and/or attend short presentations by the exhibitors.
Selected exhibitors will have the opportunity to introduce their search tools, data products and services in short speaking slots on Friday, 12 April 2019 from 08.30 - 09.30 hrs. Speaking time will be limited to 7 minutes. Commercial providers are invited to submit an abstract (max. 500 characters) by 20 March 2019. For further questions, please contact the organisers at asiainfo@epo.org.
This is your chance for direct interaction with users of your products and services. Participation in the poster session is free-of-charge. The focus of your content should be "Asia-related", but this can be understood in a broader sense (e.g. including ASEAN, Russia, Arabic countries). If you are interested in exhibiting at our event, but are unsure whether your content fits, please contact us!
