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.
Register facts self-declared (snapshot 2 Sept 2026); cost bands are floors. Shared files are shared attention, not evidence of coordination.
What each said, in their own words
Their opening passages on the files they share, verbatim and in filing order. We do not summarize, compare, or characterize positions — read them at 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.
The development of new medicines requires extensive research and considerable time and resources, the path from basic research to a new authorised medicine is long and involves many uncertainties. To deal with uncertainties, and the long timelines for development and marketing authorisation, IP rights are fundamental.

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.
