商品描述
A patent can be a very important asset for a company. However, the path to obtaining one is often challenging. Only inventions that are completely new and demonstrate an inventive step are granted a patent. Therefore, the key criteria for patent grant are novelty and inventive step. The justification of the inventive step regularly determines the outcome of the examination proceedings before the patent offices--the German Patent and Trade Mark Office (DPMA) and the European Patent Office (EPO)--and in contentious cases before the Federal Patent Court (BPatG). Consequently, the criterion of inventive step deserves the utmost attention. This specialized book provides readers with the legal know-how necessary to successfully justify the inventive step of their invention in proceedings before the DPMA, the EPO, and the BPatG, or to effectively challenge a third party's patent in litigation.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
專利對於一家公司來說可以是非常重要的資產。然而,獲得專利的過程往往充滿挑戰。只有那些完全新穎且展示出創新步驟的發明才能獲得專利。因此,專利授予的關鍵標準是新穎性和創新步驟。
創新步驟的合理性通常決定了在專利局(德國專利和商標局 DPMA 和歐洲專利局 EPO)進行的審查程序的結果,以及在有爭議的案件中在聯邦專利法院(BPatG)中的結果。
因此,創新步驟的標準值得高度重視。本書專門提供讀者在 DPMA、EPO 和 BPatG 的程序中成功證明其發明的創新步驟所需的法律知識,或在訴訟中有效挑戰第三方專利的能力。
