As stated in our article on “EasierAccessToPatentsForMicroEntities”, the USPTO has planned to reduce micro entities’ costs by 50% for “filing, searching, examining, issuing, appealing and maintaining patent application and patents”.
The USPTO is holding a 60 day commenting period to then decide whether they proceed with the plan. Do you think this is enough incentive to get more small/micro entities to file for patents? Or should more be done?
