Dear Mr. Grigoriev:

It gives me great pleasure to extend my warmest congratulations to you on the occasion of the Tenth Anniversary of the establishment of the Eurasian Patent Organization.

As the global reach of innovation, research and development increases in the knowledge-based economy, it will be fundamentally important for the users of the patent system to have an effective and efficient means for securing their rights. The Eurasian Patent Organization will be a key player in this effort.

I look forward to continuing our history of cooperation, and I wish the Eurasian Patent Organization many more years of success.

Sincerely,
JON W. DUDAS
