Update: This event has been moved to the Martin Luther King Branch located at 1467 E. Long St., Columbus, OH 43203. The event will be from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. We will be in Rooms 1-2 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Room 2 from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Join the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for a one-day Trademarks Boot Camp. This is an in-person, single-day workshop for entrepreneurs, small businesses, and startups in communities with limited or no internet access, covering what they should know about trademarks.
The event explores what trademarks are, the benefits of federal trademark registration, and the basics of the registration process. We’ll also discuss why it’s so important for any new business to select a trademark that is both federally registrable and legally protectable.
Specific topics include:
Fundamentals and searching
Applications and filing
Responses and registration
There will be plenty of question-and-answer sessions throughout the day, plus a discussion about free resources available through the USPTO.
This event is free, but registration is required. For registration information, questions about the one-day event, or the One-day patents and trademarks boot camp series, please email Andriae Holt at Andriae.Holt@uspto.gov.
Lunch will not be provided during this event. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunch.
