SXSW 2021
Patents and Business, Building a Better Tomorrow
Description:
In order to build a better tomorrow, we must learn from our past. Patents help people improve upon ideas that may or may not have been previously successful. Patents also protect ideas so that people have the flexibility to develop and improve them. They provide security to businesses on a global scale. So if you’re wondering: how you can ensure no one steals your ideas, what resources and skills you need to bring your ideas to life, how to create a marketable business out of intellectual property, and how to protect your ideas on a global scale, this panel is for you. Representatives from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and the United States Chamber of Commerce will discuss resources and services aimed at single inventors, micro entities, and small businesses.
