A major new survey conducted by Ibec highlights the importance of access to pan-European Unitary Patent System for Irish Businesses

It highlights that 78% of businesses said that they are likely to increase their patenting activity to protect their innovations, if Ireland were to sign up to the new Unitary Patent and the Unified Patent Court (UPC) system.

Naoise Gaffney, Chair of Ibec’s Intellectual Property Group spoke to Emmet Oliver on the show.
