SUMMARY:Patenting Apps and Software: U.S. Patent Practice
DESCRIPTION:How does one protect an app or software in today’s 
 environment? What form or forms of intellectual property are best used to 
 protect the various aspects of an app or software\, and how to they work 
 together to offer coverage? This program\, taught by outreach trainers from 
 the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO)\, will focus primarily 
 on the use of utility patents to protect an app or software while also 
 addressing other forms of intellectual property that are pertinent. Best 
 practices when pursuing a utility patent will also be discussed.\n\n\n\nAs 
 the Eastern Regional Outreach Director for the U.S. Patent and Trademark 
 Office (USPTO)\, Elizabeth Dougherty carries out the strategic direction of 
 the Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of 
 the USPTO\, and is responsible for leading the USPTO's East Coast 
 stakeholder engagement. Focusing on the region and actively engaging with 
 the community\, Ms. Dougherty ensures the USPTO's initiatives and programs 
 are tailored to the region's unique ecosystem of industries and 
 stakeholders.\n\nView Elizabeth Dougherty's full bio\n\n \n \n
