It is generally possible to jointly extent this transitional period. EU bodies and the UK will use the transitional period to conclude an agreement to regulate their future relations.

The trade magazine IAM organised a Round Table on the subject of “Patent prosecution” in which BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT patent attorneys Christian W. Appelt and Dr. Markus Engelhard as well as colleagues from other law firms participated.
In this round table, the invited IP specialists discussed current innovations and changes in their clients’ requirements for obtaining intellectual property rights worldwide, securing their rights management and portfolio quality through their consulting services tailored to the respective case. New technologies, for example in the field of artificial intelligence or medical diagnosis, require adapted patent strategies. Ch. W. Appelt and Dr. M. Engelhard agree on this: “Patents are the currency of the 21st century when it comes to technology and knowledge-based societies. Being part of the process of manufacturing this currency is extremely exciting and rewarding.”

In the press release of 16 September 2019, Bitkom announces the first results of the Open Source Monitor 2019 project, which was realised on behalf of the Digitalverband and with the support of renowned companies. BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT is pleased it was able to support this first comprehensive Open Source study in Germany. For the survey, 840 companies with more than 100 employees in Germany were interviewed by telephone. Two thirds of the larger companies already consciously use Open Source software and only 4 percent view the topic critically or reject the use. Already 9 of 10 larger firms recognise advantages through Open Source, but many also see the difficulties that arise with the use of Open Source software, especially as regards compliance processes. We will publish our findings from this study shortly.
