In any patent application, it is vital for the invention to be sufficiently disclosed in order to convince the patent office that the information provided is a fair exchange for the exclusive rights sought. The examples in a patent are particularly important in demonstrating that the invention delivers the claimed technical advantages across the scope of the claim. Applicants and inventors should therefore always consider whether they have enough experimental data when filing a patent application – but how much data is enough?
In this webinar, we will explore the level of experimental detail and breadth of examples necessary to be included in a patent application to demonstrate that the invention works across the entire scope of the claim, and how these requirements may vary between technological fields, with particular emphasis on chemical, pharmaceutical and life sciences patents. We will also discuss how a strategic approach to generating and submitting supporting data can form the basis of a strong patent family across multiple jurisdictions.
This 45-minute webinar is ideal for professionals in R&D, in-house counsel, IP professionals and overseas attorneys wishing to improve their understanding of the level of detail required in examples for chemical, pharmaceutical and life sciences patents in Europe.
