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.
PhRMA, and the innovative biopharmaceutical companies that it represents, has serious concerns with the call for legislative action regarding compulsory licensing in the EU and its Member States. While the call for evidence recognizes that compulsory licensing should be a tool of last resort, it suggests that there is a need for a central compulsory licensing mechanism in Europe for use in a potential crisis.
Confindustria contributed and agrees with BusinessEurope's position paper on European Commission proposal for mandatory authorization for the crisis management. Confindustria, in line with European industry, expresses strong concern about the EC proposal, which risks weakening the European patent law system to the detriment of innovation and competitiveness in the Eurozone
A centralized system for the grant and enforcement of a Unitary SPC (“uSPC”) through a single procedure, analogously with what is being achieved with the European Patent with Unitary Effect and Unified Patent Court ( EP-UE and UPC, respectively) is certainly a very desirable option with a view to creating a more predictable, less burdensome and cost-effective system for Europe.
The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, and the innovative biopharmaceuticals companies that they represent, commend the European Commission’s call for the development of a single procedure for the granting of supplementary protection certificates (SPCs) in Europe.
