The PCT route lets you defer costs, assess patentability, and secure global options - but navigating its procedures requires precision. This seminar teaches how to avoid filing pitfalls, streamline national phase entry, and maximize patent value through strategic formalities.
Struggling with PCT procedures? Filing locations, form complexities, and inter-office communication can make the process challenging.
The PCT system offers a flexible set of options but knowing when and how to use them is key. This seminar enhances your understanding of PCT formal requirements by linking them to specific strategic goals.
By explaining why each option is chosen, you'll gain a deeper appreciation of how they impact the applicant's objectives-along with their potential benefits and risks.
