Important inventions deserve patent protection, yet the USPTO has a large backlog that delays examination for at least two years. Fast patent prosecution options are available to most applicants under 37 CFR 1.102(e). For newly filed applications, a procedure known as the Track One program offers prioritized examinations which permits applicants to have a special status during prosecution before the patent examiners. Other PTO procedures can also speed-up examination.

In this webinar, attendees will learn methods and strategies for accelerating patent applications to grant as including:

• Fast Examination
  • Prioritized Examination
  • Accelerated Examination
  • Bypass Applications
• Patent Prosecution Highway

Presented by seasoned patent attorneys, this program provides a comprehensive overview for patent prosecution through the lens of timeliness and efficiency.
