The OEPM and ITEMAS launch the "Information Pills"

The Spanish Patent and Trademark Office, O.A. (OEPM) and the Health and Medical Technologies Innovation Platform (ITEMAS) have launched a series of “information pills” in which topics of interest raised by the health platform itself and related to patents will be discussed for 30 minutes. This activity falls within the institutional framework established by the OEPM-ITEMAS collaboration agreement signed in 2015 and recently renewed in 2020.

The first information pill, which took place on November 24 and entitled "OEPM-ITEMAS Pill" Patent information as a key tool in research in the healthcare environment ", has had the objective of transmitting the idea that patents provide information of extraordinary interest in research in the hospital environment. Its importance is not only at the beginning of the project to know what it is that others have already investigated on the subject and thus avoid duplicating investigations, but also throughout the project to be able to finally reach novel, patentable, and facially transferable results to companies and other organizations.

The next 5 scheduled events will be about: how to search for patents in free databases; what kind of inventions related to the healthcare environment can be patented; patentability in the field of medical devices; how to apply for a European patent or PCT; and, how to correctly interpret a report on the state of the art.

These events will be held monthly and the sessions will be virtual, through the Webex platform. To sign up for the course, prior registration is essential.

In addition, after the recording of each informative pill, the corresponding link with the video will be sent.

We encourage all those who wish to participate in these training sessions. In order not to miss them, stay tuned through the following link.
