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.

Compulsory licensing of patents in crisis situations

Leem · filed 29 Apr 2022 · source

The substantial investment in R&D by multiple actors over many years into novel technologies, vaccine, therapeutic and other products now available to address Covid-19 would not have occurred without the robust IP system in the EU and elsewhere. IP, particularly patents, has provided the legal framework and incentive for the high risk, high-cost investment underpinning the response to the pandemic.

Deutscher Anwaltverein e.V. · filed 29 Apr 2022 · source

Please find enclosed the opinion of the German Lawyers’ Association (DAV) by the Intellectual Property Committee on the Commission’s impact assessment on compulsory licensing in the EU. The DAV welcomed in principle an evaluation of the compulsory licensing system for patents. However, the DAV is critical of the creation of a uniform system of compulsory licensing in the EU.

Bringing new therapies to patients is a long, complex and risky process that requires long-term and continuous investments. Patents are critical to that purpose and to the EU’s innovation and industrial ambitions.
