Patent filings at the European Patent Office (EPO) grew by 2.8% last year and hit another all-time high, showing that Europe continues to be a key market for

Shepard Fox also supported the EPO in communicating the patent filing figures locally country by country in France, the UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Poland, Japan, Korea, China and the US, by preparing local messages in the respective local language. Shepard Fox also arranged interviews with EPO President Benoît Battistelli with TV, radio, print and online media from across Europe.
