It sounds like one of those many conferences designed to raise awareness
about the possibility and usefulnes of patenting and in general of course
also to spread the gospel of the ever-growing importance of patents in the
upcoming new age of idea ownership, as well as simple PR for the patent
office. As always in politics, it is difficult to say which of several
purposes is the primary one.
It would do no harm if the congregations at such occasions got some
leaflets into their hands that could help tone down the hype and keep more
people sober.
