"EP validation in Poland" is a popular term used for filing with the Polish Patent Office (PPO) translation of a patent granted by European Patent Office (EPO) – EP patent.

Filing such translation is non-optional for the EP patent proprietors who wish to have protection in Poland.

The prescribed time limit to meet this requirement is three months from the date on which the mention of the grant (or maintenance in amended form or limitation) is published in the European Patent Bulletin. If the time limit is not observed the EP patent is irrevocably invalid in Poland. Therefore, filing translation which prevents the EP patent from being invalid is called EP validation in Poland as it is an action that prevents just that.

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.
