USPTO Trademark Bootcamp

**This event is the rescheduled January 19 event.**

Join the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), the Kentucky Intellectual Property Alliance (KYIPA), CREATE, and WKU Innovation Campus for a one-day trademarks boot camp on April 5, 2024, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT at WKU Innovation Campus in Bowling Green, KY.  This is an in-person, single-day workshop for entrepreneurs, small businesses, and start-ups covering what they should know about trademarks.

The event explores what trademarks are, the benefits of federal trademark registration, and the basics of the registration process. We’ll also discuss why it’s so important for any new business to select a trademark that is both federally registrable and legally protectable.

Topics will include:

• Fundamentals and searching
• Applications and filing
• Responses and registration

There will be plenty of question-and-answer sessions throughout the day, plus a discussion about free resources available through the USPTO. 

This event is free, but registration is required. For registration information or questions about the event, please email cstivers@kstc.com.
