According to the organizers, this is Europe’s premier event for patent litigation professionals. Over 450 industry experts are expected to gather for a deep dive deep into the most pressing challenges and innovations in contentious IP law.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
