Last-minute PCT refresher for CIPA

I was asked to provide a short presentation as a last-minute PCT refresher for EQE candidates. The event took place online, on 13th February 2023 and was organised by CIPA Informals. More than 100 candidates attended.

Since the meeting was free to attend, I decided to also upload the presentation to my blog. Although I am not sure everything can be understood simply from the PDF, it might still be useful.

The majority of the EQE questions concern the step of filing and EP entry. I tried to list all legal issues and problems that can occur at these steps and also listed the D1 questions (from the last 10 years) that deal with those issues. If you see a legal issue in the presentation that you are not sure about (e.g. the start of provisional protection, minimum entry under Art.153(5) EPC), make sure to check it in your reference book, add a book tab & notes, and do a few related questions.

Good luck!
