Pre-Application Assessment Pilot program

Do you have a concept or invention that you want to patent? Are you a potential first-time patent application filer? Are you interested in learning how to search public patent databases to find patent literature similar to your invention? Let us help you get started with the Pre-Application Assessment Pilot program workshop.

Join us as we help you jump start your entrepreneurial innovation journey, by guiding you through the pre-application process. Our free, two-day virtual workshop will show you how to search public patent databases to determine if your idea is completely new or has never been used for the same purpose before.

Make sure to sign up for an upcoming event and let us help you take that first step to getting a patent. If you're interested in more information about patents and the process, read through our Patent Basics webpage. It's filled with lots of information to help you get on your patent application journey.
