“Agenda IDS “Amendments to Patent Claims – Global Updates”

Agenda IDS 2023: In anticipation of the celebration of the World Intellectual Property Day, Dannemann Siemsen Institute (IDS) welcomes a team of experts to speak about relevant issues on amendments to patent claims.

This is a topic that raises great discussions – not only in Brazil, but in other jurisdictions -, such as:

• The allowable scope and extent of the amendments to a patent application claim;

• The time limit for making claim amendments;

• The treatment given to this subject among the different jurisdictions.

To analyze these and other issues, IDS Advisory Board Member, Mr. Gustavo de Freitas Morais, will moderate a virtual table discussion with a group of specialists:

• Mr. Ankush Verma, from India, will speak about the regulation of the amendments to patent claims in this country and will comment about an important precedent of the Delhi High Court;

• Dr. Alexander Wyrwoll, from Germany, will address this subject as regulated by the European Patent Convention and as treated by the European Patent Office;

• Ms. Monique Rodrigues Teixeira, from Brazil, will comment, among other topics, about how the Brazilian Industrial Property Law legislates this matter and the understanding of BRPTO on this regard.
