Dear all,
on Social media: Yes, I'd like to continue our series on patent cases started at the beginning of the year (with old patent cases). Starting this week I'd like to use the new patent cases from the report and make 1 posting/week on Facebook/Twitter.
I think a conference call in May would be a good idea. Should I set up a doodle for mid-May?
Best, Johanna

Dear all,
this was hard work, but we managed a as team very well. Thanks to you all!
I would not expect media many reports (although we tried in Germany) but the main target group for our work under Corona can not be just journalists.
Good news: We already received E-Mail from German Parliament that they will use the report to restart to debate, they might try to organise an online conference... let us see.
But this is the direction we now have to take: We have to run a wake up call before the Enlarged Board publishes its decision.
(1) Please use the report as much as you can to inform your parliament, government, experts.
(2) Johanna could develop a series of postings in social media, using the 11 examples.
(3) we also have to prepare media communication for the upcoming decision of the Enlarged Board
(4) we have to consider to run another push (maybe using new examples) before the meeting of the AC in June (I guess there will be some gathering, maybe just online).
(5) we could discuss that our office tries to get in contact directly with governments / national experts in countries were we do not have a representative (Italy? France? Spain? Poland? others?). I will draft a letter that will be sent to the Members of the AC next week. However in some countries we might need more activities.
In addition I now will try to sort out some organisatorial issues, also together with the Board, which I did not have the time yet. I also will prepare letters to call for the outstanding funding.
I also was asked to add Fulya (working with Arche Noah before) to the list which is working on a EU educational project with NGOs. I would agree. Maybe Fulya can send some more informations.
So let us congratulate each other, I think we did a good job under difficult conditions and now can look forward to achieve our goals.
do we need a phone call in May?
Cheers
Christoph
