Ingress:
"Brussels, 15 February 2023 — FFII has filed a corruption complaint
against the European Patent Office (EPO) and the state of Netherlands
on a 200M EUR building bribery. The EPO has exchanged a promise to
invest a 200M EUR building in Rijswijk against aggressive fiscal
privileges for its staff, transforming the Netherlands in a tax haven
for international institutions. FFII tried to alert belgian socialist
MEP Tarabella few days before the QatarGate exploded. FFII is calling
on Member States and EU institutions for an investigation of the case,
and a pause of the ratification by Germany to launch the Unified Patent
Court."
Det er en interessant og skremmende historie om det europeiske
patentkontoret.
Har det norske patentkontoret også økonomisk insentiv til å godkjenne så
mange patenter som mulig?
