7 October 2026  |  In this episode, Tilman Pfrang speaks with Elvira Bertram about the UPC Court of Appeal’s decision in Fujifilm v Kodak and its implications for infringement actions involving non-UPC countries. They discuss how the UPC deals with validity challenges concerning foreign designations, when defendants may need to bring national revocation actions, and whether foreign infringement proceedings can continue while those actions are pending. The conversation also explores different defence strategies and the unresolved question of how a UPC injunction concerning the UK can be enforced.
