In addition, the practical exam (Mock trial) ends up being one of the best experiences and educational tools I have ever been involved in.

“Excellent course, perfectly organised also in hybrid format, with high-level speakers providing their knowledge on patent litigation procedures in Europe and the forthcoming United Patent Court. The perfect training to learn and practice about UPCA and Rules of Procedure, especially in participating in a mock trial“.

“A very high quality training, with for example valuable insights from those who drafted the rules of the UPC, or national judges.“
Mathilde Rauline, Head of Greater Europe Patent Litigation, Sanofi
“This training has provided a good knowledge in patent infringement matters at the international level. The lecturers were well-versed judges and attorneys who were involved in the process of UPC and hence they conveyed a good understanding of the UPC logic. The mock trial which was held by judges experienced in patent litigation gave an excellent insight into the proceedings before the UPC. I strongly recommend the training to all interested European Patent Attorneys.”
