On 24 July 2015 and on 11 September 2015, the most significant amendments in recent years to the Act of 30 June 2000 - the Industrial Property Law, were adopted. The said changes substantially modified the hitherto regulations concerning, inter alia, patents, trademarks and industrial designs. Please find below a summary of the most important changes, the majority of which shall enter into force on 1 December 2015.

What deserves particular attention, in our opinion, is the change of the procedure for granting trademark protection rights. Effective from 15 April 2016 it will considerably accelerate the process of trademark registration with the Polish Patent Office.

The Contractor As A Threat To Trade Secrets. What The GameDev Industry Can Learn From The Case Of Epic Games Versus A Former Colleague

Leaks in the video game industry are as old as the industry itself. Developers usually try to closely control the flow of information to have control over the publishing plan, but disloyal employees or determined hackers have repeatedly stood in the way. In recent years, there have been leaks with such large productions as Grand Theft Auto 6, Fallout 4 or The Last of Us 2. In the latter case, this forced Sony to change the marketing campaign and accelerate the launch of the game. Sony admitted that it suffered losses as a result.

We Are All Inventors! Here Is A Story Of A Cup, A Straw With A Weight, And Two Parents Who Changed The Parenting Industry.

Imagine a scene known to probably every parent. A child is in a car seat or a cot and tries to drink water from a cup. The cup is shut tight, the straw is in place, but in the lying position, the liquid suddenly escapes somewhere to the side, and all the toddler sucks is air. In such a situation, the parent usually either sighs and places the mug at a different angle, or, as history has shown many times, comes up with an idea how to solve this problem once and for all.
