Are you interested in learning more about patent searching?
Register today to attend this in-person, interactive session led by United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) experts who will demonstrate how to conduct a patent search using the new Patent Public Search tool. This new web-based patent search application replaces legacy search tools Public-Examiner’s Automated Search Tool (PubEast), Public-Web-based Examiner’s Search Tool (PubWest), Patent Full-Text and Image Database (PatFT), and Patent Application Full-Text and Image Database (AppFT), which were retired in September 2022.
Participants will learn basic information about:
- How to conduct a preliminary U.S. patent search
- The Six Step Patentability Search Strategy
- Patent searching tools
To learn more information about patent searching, visit the search for patents page on the USPTO website.
