Summary: The EPO's most notorious French dictator promoted a compatriot, Razik Menidjel, who was later promoted by another Frenchman, António Campinos, the "f***ing president" (in his own words) who expects to be in the Office for a decade, promoting European software patents in violation of the EPC

THE ongoing series shows how the EPO's management plots to slow down the bursting of a patennt bubble long in the making. In Part V and Part VI we explained the role of Razik Menidjel, who was put in charge of disciplines he does not understand and has zero experience in.



The EPO is out of control. With the pseudoscience of 'economics' on its side (another Frenchman put there by Battistelli to just mindlessly parrot buzzwords like "4IR"-- a codeword/buzzword/acronym for software patents) we can expect more lobbying in the direction of unprecedented divergence from the EPC (i.e. breaking the law) and the granting of hundreds of thousands of Invalid Patents (IPs) instead of European Patents (EPs).
