Dear all,
the detailed programme of the EPO event is now online.
https://www.epo.org/en/news-events/events/50-years-european-patent-conventio... https://www.epo.org/en/news-events/events/50-years-european-patent-convention?mtm_campaign=50yearsEPC&mtm_keyword=epo-newsletter-16&mtm_medium=newsletter&mtm_content=event&mtm_group=email &mtm_keyword=epo-newsletter-16&mtm_medium=newsletter&mtm_content=event&mtm_group=email
Ministers from Austria and the Netherlands and the German Chancellor will speak. Maybe we could send them a letter before the event? But I guess this wouldn’t influence what they are saying at the event – since they want to celebrate the EPO and not criticise them.
Maybe we could send an open letter to all the speakers and/or tag them in Twitter posts before the event.

This program seems to confirm my assessment that if we do something, to be picked up by media, we have to develop a strong visual of protest.
this is not an opportunity for complex content and it also will not work to send letters, to hand over something or presenting a banner.
but it looks like we can not agree and I would be very hesitant to spend further time and resources into this event.
