Great improvements to espacenet

The European Patent Office's patent information system ESPACENET has been a great free resource for many years now. I regularly recommend it to clients, and when talking about IP for people looking for patent information to drive innovation. In many cases, you  can quickly see if an idea is already known or not.

The EPO has just released a major update of the system and it's now even better and worth having a look at!  Please take a look at:
