This Newsletter has already dealt repeatedly with the European Unitary Patent for the EU and the European Patent Court (TUB), underlining the critical issues for Italy.
It should be pointed out that, with the completion of the ratification of the TUB by Germany on 17 February, both systems will enter into force officially on 1 June.
It is therefore absolutely essential that Italian companies prepare themselves quickly and that, together with their patent advisors, they develop a careful management strategy for what, for us Europeans, is a real revolution, that will mark the decades to come, not only in the world of intellectual property, but in the very life of industries and citizens, in particular Italian ones.
