News
IP Inclusive celebrates 10 years with an impact report
IP Inclusive, which is a network of IP professionals working with the objective of making the IP community more equal, diverse and inclusive, is marking its 10th anniversary by launching its 2025 Impact Report. The report reflects on 10 areas of impact it has had over that time. Kudos!
An fearful warning from the UKIPO
Alarmingly for Kats and cat-owners alike, the UKIPO has issued a warning in respect of counterfeit flea treatments containing toxic chemicals. No one reading this blog needs to be told about the dark side of counterfeiting, but please spread the word - cheaping out on fake products can have serious effects. Ensure your cats (and Kats) get the real deal.

No comments:
All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.
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.
