USPTO Alert The National Academy of Inventors launches new Invention Ambassador Program in partnership with the USPTO In celebration of Intellectual Property (IP) Month, the National Academy of Inventors (NAI) is proud to [announce the launch of its newest program, Invention Ambassadors](%2F%2Facademyofinventors.org%2Fnai-uspto-invention-ambassadors-launch%2F%3Futm_campaign=subscriptioncenter%26utm_content=%26utm_medium=email%26utm_name=%26utm_source=govdelivery%26utm_term=/1/01000192529c0791-9738608a-161b-448d-8f65-8aa06baa612f-000000/l4NNv0W77gNtmW96SZDJq6EoVDuWbDCbcroj0GfOwvw=373), created in partnership with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The NAI Invention Ambassadors program is composed of accomplished inventors, innovators, entrepreneurs, and commercialization experts who will take part in speaking engagements across the nation. Through these engagements, the NAI Invention Ambassadors aim to celebrate and showcase the importance of academic invention, share best practices for the innovation ecosystem, and inspire the creation of a culture of inclusive innovation. The inaugural cohort of Invention Ambassadors are from a cross-sector of innovation fields and offer a range of perspectives, cultures, genders, and expertise. They also include NAI Fellows, Honorary Members, and champions from NAI Member Institutions who will be able to share their unique insights. The Ambassadors will speak to diverse audiences across the country, including students, education leaders, STEM professionals, and other stakeholders within the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. âAs part of our mission, it is imperative to us that academic innovation and the inventors that make it possible are being recognized and celebrated for their contributions. This program not only recognizes impactful inventors by inviting them to join as NAI Invention Ambassadors, but aims to empower current and future inventors, leaders, and stakeholders by giving them the insights and guidance necessary to flourish in the innovation ecosystem,â said Paul Sanberg, Fellow of the NAI, President of NAI. âThrough this program, we are fulfilling the need to get inventors and innovation champions in front of audiences that will greatly benefit from their experience and expertise.â âThis program epitomizes the partnership and shared missions of the USPTO and NAI: to foster inclusive innovation, and expand access to invention for underserved communities,â said Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the USPTO Kathi Vidal. âThis is a national imperative that will lift communities and promote economic security and prosperity. Through their outreach, these passionate ambassadors will share valuable resources and information with future innovators and inspire them to participate in the innovation ecosystem.â Read the rest of the [press release on the NAI website](%2F%2Facademyofinventors.org%2Fnai-uspto-invention-ambassadors-launch%2F%3Futm_campaign=subscriptioncenter%26utm_content=%26utm_medium=email%26utm_name=%26utm_source=govdelivery%26utm_term=/2/01000192529c0791-9738608a-161b-448d-8f65-8aa06baa612f-000000/7fFwhfOIAxVafZU5Usuu2zkMo537vIMKMEFiW6GoQFA=373).
