Dublin, April 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Patentability (Apr 28, 2026)" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This one-day training course focusses on the criteria and principles of establishing patentability of an invention through searching the literature. Attending this course will give you the knowledge, tools and technques to navigate the complexities of patent searching.
Patent examiners review patent applications to determine whether the claimed invention meets the established patentability criteria of novelty, non-obviousness and industrial applicability. It's important to be prepared by performing your own patent searches before filing a priority patent application.
Getting information early can enhance your chances of obtaining valid and enforceable patents. With an emphasis on European and US practice, this course is for all those involved with the patent filing process, and in particular IP analysts, patent engineers, patent agents, patent attorneys and other patent and IP professionals.
The expert trainer will take you through the principles of patentability searching and how to deal with specific challenges along the way, including broadening and narrowing your search. Prior art searching may involve searching patents, scientific, medical, technical literature and other general information on the internet.
There will also be time during the training course to ask your specific questions to the trainer and to network with other industry colleagues.
