What's in our December issue?

Here is our latest table of contents, with a rich mix of case notes, articles and reviews, to keep you company over Christmas. We also take this occasion to thank you for your continuing support in the past months and to wish you a lovely, happy and relaxing Christmas break. 2017 is going to be a very interesting year in the world of IP (exciting or depressing, but certainly dynamic), especially in Europe, and we look forward to keeping you updated with prompt, rigorous and in-depth analysis of IP developments from all over the world.
