USPTO Resources for Small Business

The USPTO has launched a program to encourage and help small businesses get easy-to-understand information in intellectual property issues.

About the program:

[T]he USPTO has launched a nationwide program to encourage small businesses to recognize and consider the benefits of strong IP protection-both domestically and abroad. Specifically, the USPTO wants businesses to know:

    * When to apply;
    * What type of protection to apply for;
    * Where to apply; and
    * How to apply.

As part of the campaign, the USPTO has developed this Web site to help small businesses better identify and address their IP protection needs.
