What is the USPTO doing to help small businesses protect their intellectual property?
The USPTO is taking steps to assist small businesses in America to determine when or if to file for IP protection, what type of protection to file for, where to file and how to go about it. As part of this program, the USPTO is hosting a series of seminars across the country to educate small businesses about the realities of piracy, counterfeiting, and infringement, and inform them about how to protect their intellectual property interests where they do business and source products.
