Summary

Watch Damian Porcari's final presentation as the Director of the USPTO's Midwest Regional Office as he discusses the intersection of patent, trademark, and copyright law. We cover the difference between ornamental and functional design patents, distinctive vs. functional trademarks, avoiding foreclosing a design patent or trademark when writing utility patent applications, and when copyright protection can and cannot be obtained. Don't miss your final chance to hear from this incredible resource in the field.
