Do you know that there are also firms which peel new patents, identify the most interesting and then propose to companies working in the field concerned, so-called "circumvention" patents?

Book VI of the ICC
Art. L. 611-1. any invention
peut be an industrial property title issued by the Director of the National Industrial Property Institute that gives its holder or his successors in title an exclusive right of exploitation.
In law, can means "it is possible to". The protection of industrial works is not exclusively a patent.
If this were the case, article L611-1 should be amended by replacing may with "must", which in legal terms means obligation.
For peeling patents altogether, it called technological intelligence present in all major businesses.
