GDR form treasure now searchable in DPMAregister - DFG research project of the State Patent Center Thuringia ("PATON") - Europe leads the way in water technology innovation (18.07.2024)
Europe is a world leader in the development of new technologies in the water sector, such as drinking water production, efficient water utilisation, wastewater treatment and flood protection. This is shown by a study published today by the European Patent Office (EPO). In the period from 1992 to 2021, 40 per cent of all international patent families on water technologies were filed by applicants from the EPO's 39 member states. This puts Europe well ahead in terms of inventions in the water sector, followed by the USA and Japan. The leading European countries are currently Germany, France and the United Kingdom. - Ingenious women (17.07.2024)
