Please join us for an advanced look at intellectual property with the USPTO. The ICAP Team is excited to host this ONLINE ONLY session which will cover several key topics:

  • A brief overview of what a patent is, what it provides a patent holder, and what it does not provide a patent holder.
  • How to develop an IP strategy (for both creators and licensees).
  • When a patent, trademark, and/or copyright is the best option.
  • Different IP options for those in the AI/ML/Cyber fields.
  • Considerations for entrepreneurs when their IP has national security implications.
  • Low and no-cost resources connected to the USPTO (specifically those options for people throughout Virginia).
  • Recommendations for when an attorney could/should be involved in the patent process.

For those who would like to have a better understanding of Patents, please join the Virginia SBDC:
