Presenting a webinar this morning made me aware that this blog had missed a number of stories relating to Danish sanctions enforcement.

I have endeavoured to rectify that gap with a number of posts filling gaps from 2022 through to early 2024. Because I have back-dated the posts so that they appear in the correct sequence it made sense to collect them into a properly new post to highlight the additions.

The European Patent Office's Enlarged Board has fundamentally altered the landscape of prior art assessment, establishing that products made publicly available before a patent filing date constitute prior art regardless of whether they can be analyzed or reproduced. This landmark decision removes the long-standing reproducibility requirement, making market availability alone sufficient to destroy novelty and significantly raising the stakes for timely patent filings.
