National Council for Expanding American Innovation
In September, the USPTO launched a major initiative aimed at expanding invention, innovation, and entrepreneurship in the United States. The aim of the National Council for Expanding American Innovation (NCEAI) is to help encourage and support innovators. The USPTO is setting up free, online events where independent inventors and intellectual property (IP) professionals can connect and learn about useful resources.

These events are aimed at certain underrepresented constituencies, such as Veterans or minority communities, but anyone can register and attend online. For more information, or to ask questions about the program, email InnovationOutreach@USPTO.gov
