Last chance to benefit from the first to invent principle! |
19.02.2013 |
| In one month, the transition period of the America Invents act will expire. This means that if you want to benefit from the first to invent principle, then your U.S. patent application should be filed before March 16, 2013. |

| First to file and first
to invent are legal concepts that define who has the right to the grant
of a patent for an invention. The first-to-file system is used in all countries
except for the United States, which will switch to a first-to-file system on
March 16, 2013 after the enactment of the America Invents Act. |
