What Does A Space Powered Economy Mean?

Dec 9, 2024 | mondaq.com | Thomas Storey

Last week I attended an event called, "Towards a space powered economy", organised by the European Space Agency (ESA) as part of their Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) programme. The BASS programme aims to help businesses solve problems on Earth using space technologies, leading to what is known as, "a space powered economy". While at the event, I heard from a range of businesses in different industries, with the most surprising ones belonging to the sporting industry.
Deviation In Recent Caselaw From EPO Guidelines For Mathematical Methods

A recent T-decision by the Boards of Appeal (T 1741/22) involved receiving measurements of glucose levels in a patient's blood, and generating from them maximum and minimum measured glucose values, so that potential medical outlier values can be spotted.

Even though computer-programs as such are not patentable in Europe, the subject of this decision would normally be expected to be patentable because it makes a “technical contribution” by providing information about the real world (a human body).

Travelling As The Crow Flies - The Beginning Of Air Taxis?

Aug 30, 2024 | mondaq.com | Thomas Storey

The idea of flying cars in the future always seemed fantastical to me, even as a child. But the budding industry appears to be quite literally taking off, with an application for the UK's first testing vertiport being given the green light. Best of all, it's right here in Oxfordshire! A vertiport is an airport specifically for the vertical take-off and landing of aircraft. Because the take-off and landing of the aircraft is vertical, a far smaller space is needed than for a traditional airplane.
3D Printing On The Moon?

Jun 27, 2024 | mondaq.com | Thomas Storey

3D printing in space represents a promising transport solution: there is no risk of damaging a component during launch and landing because it hasn't even been made yet; and rather than have the bulky component on board a shuttle, you just need the raw materials to print it which can be stored in a far more efficient way. But what if you didn't even need the raw materials?

SPACEtalks - investors looking to infinity and beyond

Apr 18, 2024 | lexology.com | Thomas Storey

I recently attended the downstream day of the SPACEtalks conference hosted by the European Space Agency at the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus. The schedule was packed with a variety of speakers and topics, from sustainability and safety in space to the use of AI for dealing with the increasingly vast amounts of geospatial data. Fortunately, there was time in-between panel discussions to connect with the other attendees and hear about their aspirations over some very welcome refreshments.
Apple Halting Newest Watch Sales Before Christmas

Jan 2, 2024 | mondaq.com | Thomas Storey

The festive season is upon us, and with it comes the things we all expect this time of year: the John Lewis advert, mulled wine, Christmas markets, and the list goes on. One thing I have come to expect this time of year that never fails to bring out my festive side is a legal dispute, such as between M&S and Aldi after the last Christmas period. In keeping with tradition, last holiday season a judgement was released against Apple watches by the International Trade Commission (ITC) in the US.
