Chairman UPC invites new Expert Panel
The Chairman and his team attach great value to the involvement of practitioners and future users of the Unified Patent Court in its work. To this end it organises formal consultations and public hearings on key elements of its work, however, in preparing for proposals to be discussed in the Preparatory Committee, the Chairman has invited a small group of experts to provide advice on the various different work streams.
The new Expert Panel is set up on an informal basis and will advise the Chairman and his working group co-ordinators; in this role Expert Panel members will participate in their personal capacity. Their work will not in any way affect or impede the structure that is already in place on formal consultations or the decision-making function of the Preparatory Committee itself.

Het systeem is eerst getest en live gegaan in België. In Nederland zal deze in november 2014 live gaan. Het online filing systeem zal worden vernieuwd en een ‘my page’ wordt geïntroduceerd.
