PCT Asia 2008, jointly organised by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) and the Intellectual Property Office of Singapore (IPOS), is the first-ever gathering of Asian users of the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT).
The PCT provides a useful alternative route for patent applicants filing an “international” application for their inventions. By filing in one PCT country, applicants can simultaneously seek patent protection for their inventions in over 130 PCT countries. Beyond its convenience, the PCT system also provides a competitive advantage to savvy users who use the system strategically.
Leading Asian corporations and IP professionals will share their experiences in the strategic use of the PCT, and discuss strategies for preparing PCT applications and maximising the advantages of the PCT system. Distinguished representatives from WIPO will also discuss the latest developments of the PCT regime, share practical insights on the system and provide updates on value-added services to users.
Join us on 21 & 22 April 2008 to share your PCT experiences and learn from other users in Asia. It’s an opportunity not to be missed!
