On October 6 2016 an amendment to the Regulation of the Council of Ministers as of September 8 2016 concerning the protection fees for inventions, utility models, industrial designs, trademarks, geographical indications and topography of integrated circuits was published. The amendment came into effect on October 14 2016 and brought essential changes in the scope of fees for a trademark application.

Before the amendment, the fee for an application in up to three classes of goods or services was PLN 500 for an electronic filing and PLN 550 for filing in paper form. The fee for each additional class was PLN 120. As a result of the amendment, an applicant filing a trademark application in the Polish Patent Office in one class of goods or services will now pay a fee of PLN 400 (if filed electronically) or PLN 450 (in paper form). The fee for each additional class is PLN 120, regardless of the manner of filing.

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.
