Rospatent held the large-scale IP Era forum at Skolkovo, and I could not miss it. I met many colleagues, and we discussed patenting in general and patenting in IT in particular. I will provide a more detailed overview later. For now, all I can say is that there are more questions than answers in this field. In the photo: me with two people I have known for many years – two of the most prominent figures in intellectual property in our country: - Yury Sergeyevich Zubov – Head of Rospatent; - Oleg Petrovich Neretin – Director of Rospatent’s leading institution, the Federal Institute of Industrial Property. ## Media ## Original posts - LinkedIn:
