Absolutely true. I have little doubt in my mind that finally getting that patent pushed through last summer after it having been applied for way back in 2002 is not just a coincidence. As we now know sicpa had already made advances to EUO re GFI and imho it was sicpa that said they wanted that European patent in hand before they would look at a hard offer.

I have seen info that Phillipe Amon was making suggestions to the European Commission that they needed to update their fuel marking process back in September already.
And look at this info from the Q&A sheets published by the EC regarding the fuel marker submission process....

Question 5
Could the Commission confirm that a submission
will be acceptable if made by a legal entity
based in Switzerland i.e. within the European Ec
onomic Area, or does it have to be made by
legal entity of one
of the Member States of the EU?
This question is asked because the
relevant table in Annex 2 of the invitation s
hows a table referring to the registration number
by EU member states only.

Answer:
The submissions from outside the EU will be acceptable.

What other Swiss company would be looking to submit a fuel marking program to the EC ??? Sicpa is only possible conclusion. Pretty exciting stuff thats for sure.
