Kurt Haertel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dr Kurt Haertel (September 26, 1910, Berlin, Germany - March 30, 2000, Seefeld am Ammersee, Germany [1]) was a German patent lawyer. [1] He is sometimes referred to as one of the "fathers of the European patent law", [1] or the "father of European patent law". [2] He was President of the Deutsches Patent- und Markenamt (German Patent Office) from 1963 to 1975. [1]
Since 2003, a street in Munich, Germany, is named after him, the "Kurt-Haertel-Passage". [1] This is the connecting path from the Grasserstraße to the Bayerstraße [1] near the buildings of the European Patent Office. [3]
