About the Event
Join KYIPA and the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for our FREE Patent Bootcamp. This is an in-person, single-day workshop for entrepreneurs, small businesses, and inventors covering tools, techniques, and resources to understand the patent application process.
The event provides a scaffolded approach to understanding patents and intellectual property (IP) rights, the importance of claims in a patent application, and the various patent application requirements. It also includes:
• How to search prior art
• How to properly draft claims
• Understanding the application forms
• How to use the Patent Center to file electronically
There’ll be plenty of question-and-answer sessions throughout the day, plus a discussion of free resources available through the USPTO. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided, and networking will be available.
