New Candidate Support Programme builds stronger patent profession across Europe

Inventa is pleased to share that our team took part in the European Patent Office’s recent kick-off event for the newly established Candidate Support Programme (CSP), held in Munich on 31 October 2025.

Ana Neves contributed to the event in her role as a tutor, supporting the programme’s mission to guide and mentor aspiring patent professionals. Marisol Cardoso and Susana Rodrigues attended as participants in the CSP, beginning their journey toward advanced qualification in the European patent field.

The CSP is designed to make the path into the profession more accessible by offering structured guidance, training opportunities, and targeted support for candidates preparing for key European patent examinations. The initiative also promotes greater diversity and balance within the profession by widening access to high-quality training.

Here is a highlight of the event.
