OEPM invited KeelWit Technology to take part in their conference program “Meetings with the other part”. These lectures search a better understanding for the patent examiners within the organization, of the real difficulties that EIBTs face in their daily work. KeelWit Technology invested 38,2% of its annual turnover last year in R&D obtaining 1 PCT, 3 Registers of Community Designs and has currently several patents on the way. These figures made KeelWit eligible for its participation in the program, as a leading company among small SMEs making notorious efforts to launch innovative ideas and technologies in different sectors. The conference was followed by a long Q&A session from the audience, where over 40 examiners wanted to know more about KeelWit’s strategy, and how it selected a certain number of ideas, to promote them and take them to a business case stage, and the difficulties found to do so. A special focus was made on the scarce support found to do so, despite the existing institutional tools and organizations supposedly devoted to help SMEs, including the OEPM.
