Do you have a spark of an idea, a product improvement, or a new drug that could be something big? One of the first steps in discovering whether your idea is a true invention is doing a patent search.
Join the USPTO’s After Hours IP virtual session to learn how to take that step with confidence. Our expert will guide you through how to search for existing patents, so you can see what is already out there, refine your idea, and move forward with more confidence on your patent journey.
Topics include:
- How to perform a preliminary patent search using free USPTO tools
- An introduction to where to find free USPTO resources, including:
- Patent and Trademark Resource Centers (PTRCs)
- Training
- Inventor assistance
