Item 8.01. Other Events.
On November 17, 2022, Bubblr, Inc. (the “Company”) announces the filing of US Patent Application No. 17/980,298 entitled “Contextual Enveloping Via Dynamically Generated Hyperlinking.”
This utility patent application, filed on November 3, 2022, aims to facilitate a more efficient way to search for information on the internet rather than using the traditional search engine-based model. The inventor, Stephen Morris, the Company’s Chief Platform Officer, has assigned all rights to the patent to the Company. This newly filed patent application can be considered a sister patent to the Company’s main US Patent No. 10977387, entitled “Internet Search Mechanism”.
This newly filed patent application is for an area of technology that differs from the original patent. Whereas the original patent improves the efficiency of searching for goods and services, this newly filed patent application aims to improve the efficiency of searching for information. The Company contends that searching for goods and services and searching for information are two completely different processes.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
