The International Patent Process: How to Get Patents Worldwide

What is the international patent process? This video details the international patent process including the two ways to start the international patent process: a PCT application or direct national application in selected countries. I discuss how we typically file a provisional patent application and then start the international patent process a year from then by filing a PCT application along with any countries that are not covered by a PCT application such as Taiwan. 18 months after that, the international patent process continues by filing national phase application from the PCT application in selected jurisdictions. #patent #patents #patentstrategy #patentlaw #intellectualpropertylaw #inventortutorial #inventions #startup #startups #startupcompany #startupbusiness #startupadvice #startupguide #startuptips #startuptalks Additional Patent & Startup Resources: My best-selling book, Patents Demystified: https://amzn.to/2MX5le9 The top book on licensing your idea or invention: https://amzn.to/3tDLSib (One Simple Idea by Stephen Key) When to file a patent application: https://www.dwt.com/blogs/startup-law...
