Upon the invitation of IPR Daily and GDOIP, Dr. Matthias Hofmann and Hongting Wu will speak on strategies in the context of the Unitary Patent System
The European Unitary Patent System will enter into force on June 1, 2023, and the sunrise period has already begun. But should patent owners now opt for the new unitary patents or rather for the classical European bundle patents? And how should they proceed with existing bundle patents? Is opt-out a viable option here?

The webinar came about at the invitation of IPR Daily and GDOIP (Guangdong Overseas Intellectual Property Protection Promotion Association) and is preferentially targeted at the Chinese IP community. The presentations will be held in English and translated directly into Chinese by Mr. Hongting Wu.
The main topics at a glance:
Brief introduction to the Unified Patent System and the Unified Patent Court

Important information for holders of european patents
When does the new unitary patent system come into force and what are the implications for owners of European patents? Do European patent owners have to participate in the system or do they have other options?
We will be happy to answer these and other questions as part of our webinars on the UPC: focus on Opt-out, which you should already be thinking about now. If the Unified Patent Court takes up its work as planned on April 1, 2023, it may already be too late for this.
You can look forward to three of our experts who will provide you with comprehensive information on the topic. Dr. Daniel Herrmann, Dr. Dennis Kretschmann and Dr. Michael Rüberg will also be available to answer your questions after the webinars.
Detailed information about the European Unitary Patent and the participating member states can also be found on our UPC page.

The European Union has reached an agreement with the USA, India and South Africa on the framework conditions for a patent suspension for Covid19 vaccines. Finalisation and approval by the WHO member states is still pending.
But how will a restriction of intellectual property rights affect the biopharmaceutical industry? What are the consequences for future new medicines that are urgently needed in the global fight against serious diseases? And what measures could prevent the weakening of intellectual property while contributing to the supply of new, highly effective drugs to all people?
BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT patent attorney and partner Dr. Ute Kilger will discuss these questions at the Swiss Biotech Day on 3 May from 12:30 (CEST).
Jürgen M. Schneider, BIO Deutschland e. V., Dr. Rainer Strohmenger, Wellington Partners, as well as Philip Beushausen, dreissig24 GmbH, will complete the top-class panel.
