So-called ‘IP’ Statistics for the Baltic States Reveal Very Few Patents

Posted in Europe, Patents at 6:16 pm by Dr. Roy Schestowitz

Recently: How Finland, With About 20 Times More European Patents Than Baltic States Combined, Has Controlled Those States for the Battistelli Era Regime (and Campinos Era Too)

Summary: A quick look at the (relative) irrelevance of Baltic states to the EPO, where they enjoy a vote as powerful as that of the UK, France, Germany and other large economies with hundreds of thousands of patents

“The national Patent Offices of the Baltic States publish official statistics relating to “IP” protection,” a reader has told us. “Most of the registration activity is in the area of “trademarks” and “designs”, with very little under “patents”.”

    It seems like EPO staff is starting to have doubts about the safety of EPO pensions after Benoît Battistelli sent money to reckless gambling (EPOTIF) — a plot that’s 100% supported by António Campinos and his enablers in the Council, not to mention the European Union
