Comments from Speaker

Consideration of the problem to be solved by an invention is important when judging inventive step. When responding to Office Actions, there are some cases when it is effective to argue against the Examiner’s findings in terms of the problem to be solved. This webinar will explain the relationship between the commonality of problems to be solved by an invention and inventive step based on a recent court decision.
