UPC Cases
The Unified Patent Court (UPC)
Budde Schou – Your Expert in UPC Cases
The European Unified Patent Court (UPC) was established on June 1, 2023, marking a significant advancement in patent protection across Europe. At Budde Schou, we have closely followed this development to position ourselves as your preferred partner for navigating the new system. Combining over 100 years of experience in patent protection with deep expertise in the UPC, we are here to help you safeguard your patent rights.
A Simpler and More Efficient Patent System
The pre-existing European patent system is often highly complex, time-consuming, and expensive, requiring validations and litigation in each individual country. The UPC has fundamentally changed this. Cases concerning patent infringement and validity can now be resolved collectively for 18 participating EU countries through one single court. This ensures uniform protection across all member states, making the process simpler and more cost-effective.

We understand that a new patent system can be overwhelming to navigate. That is why Budde Schou is ready to guide you through the entire process. From developing strategies to handling cases of patent infringement or validity within the UPC framework – we have the expertise, insight, and experience to secure the best outcome for you.
