 | The Patent Process by Hovey An indispensable resource for inventors and entrepreneurs The rapid growth of e-business over the past few years has led to an unprecedented increase in patent applicationsover 1,000 since 1997! The U.S. Patent Office received a record 500 patent applications per day in the year 2000, and it estimates that it could issue as many as 200,000 in 2001. Although e-business is still in its infancy, or, perhaps, because it is, the opportunities (and the venture capital) open to alert inventors and entrepreneurs are virtually unlimited. But, as the number of opportunities grows so does the intensity of the race to be first to patent innovative new e-commerce ideas. The Patent Process arms inventors and entrepreneurs with the knowledge and skills they need to swiftly and confidently apply for and obtain patents. Craig Hovey walks readers step-by-step through the entire process and fills them in on all the key legal and licensing issues involved in trademarks, copyrights, and more. Craig Hovey, PhD (Rochester, NY), is Assistant Professor of Economics at St. John Fisher College and a CPA.
