Side by side

Compare organizations

Consultation participation and their own register declarations, side by side. Counts, not judgments — participation is not influence.

Counts here are a floor, never a total: they cover the 583 consultation files tracked so far (42,224 submissions, mostly 2025–26), so an organization's real filing history is larger, not smaller.

Standard essential patents

IDEMIA · filed 8 Aug 2023 · source

IDEMIA very much welcomes this proposal of regulation which will harmonize conditions upon which standard essential patents (SEP) may be exploited within EU (and EEA) and provide enhanced transparency and legal security for all stakeholders using standards for business. Therefore, it will foster the single market.

The following shall be taken into account: (a) Such measures must remain exceptional in absolute circumstances.
