Welcome
This is the third edition of our scientific newsletter, dedicated to providing the latest updates on research, regulatory developments, technology, and standard methods in the leather industry.
In this issue, we are starting a series of publications about the use of patents in the leather industry. We will review two old patents that shaped the leather industry.
Patents are a complex subject, involving the interplay of technology, science, art, and legal expertise. The process of obtaining a patent is intricate and often requires the expertise of a patent attorney for the submission, interaction with the patent examiner, and defense of the patent. The patent process varies across different countries, resulting in situations where patents may be granted in some regions but not in others.
Thank you for joining us on this journey. We look forward to your feedback and contributions in future editions.
Please share your comments and suggestions to secretary@iultcs.org
Wishing you all a Happy New Year! Keep Tanning!
Kind regards,
Dr. Luis A. Zugno, edito
