EPA - European Patent Office
Dr. Simon Kielhoefer (Patent Examiner)
The European Patent Office (EPO) was set up in 1973. It is the biggest regional patent office in the world and applies a uniform procedure to examine patent applications in any of its three official languages (English, French and German). It enables inventors, companies and researchers - from Europe and all over the world - to protect their inventions in up to 40 European countries, covering a market of some 650 million people. Soon the EPO will be granting and administering the unitary patent, a single European patent covering the territory of the 26 EU member states that have joined the scheme so far. The EPO is also known and respected for the quality of its products and its freely accessible patent data services. From sixteen signatory states of the European Patent Convention in 1973, the Organisation has now grown to 38 member states, including all 28 EU member states plus countries such as Norway, Switzerland and Turkey. Today the EPO is Europe's second-largest international public-service institution.

Google - Technology Company
Dr. Susanna Pielawa (Software Engineer)
Larry Page, our co-founder and CEO, once described the “perfect search engine” as something that “understands exactly what you mean and gives you back exactly what you want.” Since he spoke those words Google has grown to offer products beyond search, but the spirit of what he said remains. With all our technologies—from search to Chrome to Gmail—our goal is to make it as easy as possible for you to find the information you need and get the things you need to do done. This means making search smarter and faster, so it can understand that when you type [jaguar] you’re looking for the car, not photos of the animal. It means showing you when your friends like an ad or a search result, so that you know it might be valuable. It means making our products work intuitively, so that you can share documents with Gmail contacts without having to copy and paste, and open the same tabs on your Android phone that you have open on your Chrome browser on your desktop. Above all, it means making our products work better so that people can spend time on the stuff they’re good at—like enjoying time with family, camping in the wilderness, painting a picture or throwing a party. We’re not there yet, but we’re working on it.
