Sehr schön – vielen vielen dank!!! Great!

Dear all,

today’s activity went very well. I think we managed to get some good pictures and WeMove will produce two videos that we can use in our campaign.

I already shared some tweets with first pictures: www.twitter.com/nopatentsonseed

I will receive a wetransfer link with the photos around 15h today that I will then forward to you.

I will then post pictures on Facebook / Twitter. Please share!

Our message was received by Mr. Rainer Osterwalder (Press spokesperson) and Mr. Luis Berenguer Gimenez, spokesperson of the EPO.

They said that they are well aware of the problem, but that the EPO can not do anything about it. It is up to the member states. As soon as / Only if they get signals from the Administrative Council, they can take steps.

So this seems to be a good starting point to now ask for a Conference of Ministers.

Thank you all for your support, especially to Verena, Martha, Ruth, Giulio & his colleagues who came to Munich! Everything went very smoothly!

Best,
Johanna
