European SPCs Unravelled is a unique handbook that furnishes an exhaustive review of supplementary protection certificate (SPC) law in Europe, covering all substantive and procedural aspects of prosecution, enforcement and invalidation, and also SPC-related aspects of unfair competition law. Although SPCs are governed by the same substantive rules in all Member States of the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA), they are national intellectual property rights. The formal requirements and procedural practices of the national patent offices granting SPCs still differ significantly, and these divergences can impact the prosecution of SPCs across Europe.

The contributors to this book, all seasoned experts in the field of SPCs in their respective jurisdictions, offer hands-on guidance and detailed insights into the most pertinent SPC-related topics of practical and strategic relevance.
