The United States Patent and Trademark Office
(USPTO) announced the creation of a new Office of International Patent Cooperation,
according to IP-Watch.
The new office aims at implementing international patent cooperation efforts in
the United States and harmonizing patent systems.
The new office will help “increase
certainty of IP rights while reducing costs for our stakeholders,” said USPTO
Deputy Director Michelle Lee in a statement.
The achievements of USPTO in
international patent cooperation include the Patent Prosecution Highway, the
Global Patent Search Network, and the Cooperative Patent Classification system.
