The EU design reform brings new opportunities for protecting innovative designs in Europe. Designs can now be represented using video, animation and 3D files, while a single application can cover up to 50 designs across different product categories.

What do these changes mean for your EU design protection strategy?

Join our 40-minute webinar to learn:

• What are the key changes introduced by the EU design reform?
• How can the new representation formats benefit the protection of digital and physical designs?
• What should you consider when filing EU design applications under the new rules, and how can you avoid common pitfalls?
