Learn to assess the strengths and weaknesses of your prospective patent application
Do you have a concept or invention you want to patent? Is this your first time filing for a utility patent? Do you need to learn how to search public patent databases?
Jumpstart your entrepreneurial innovation journey with our Pre-Application Assessment Pilot program, happening virtually July 29-30.
This two-day online workshop is designed to support prospective first-time patent applicants by helping to assess the strengths and weaknesses of a potential application. Our examiners will help you determine if your invention is novel in the art by providing one-on-one search assistance using public patent tools. We’ll also discuss:
- Patent application basics
- Patent public search tools
- Low-cost or free legal support
- Other programs to assist first-time filers
Capacity is limited. Please complete our interest form by Thursday, July 24, for consideration. Selected participants will receive an email with instructions on how to join the session.
Email setd@uspto.gov if you have any questions.
