Dear all,

the EPO is launching it’s observatory in the 2^nd half of 2023. They are running another public consultation. “This consultation will run until Friday 10 March and is open to all interested stakeholders and experts of the innovation ecosystem. The EPO encourages participation from a broad community of innovation experts and not only IP specialists.” They don’t explicitly mention the participation of civil society organizations as they have done in the past. I guess it is not worthwhile sending a comment from our side, but maybe you think differently.

Best,
