Jon Dudas Quotations

America has consistently been the best place in the world to innovate . . . and it's more important today because we're not a low-cost manufacturing or agricultural economy. So getting applicants and inventors involved in the process is important.

Improving the patent process will take everyone working together applicants and the USPTO. Better-quality applications mean better examination. We need more focus throughout and closure to the examination process.

Invention promotion and licensing firms that prey upon American's independent inventor community ... will not be tolerated.

In short, Florida and the Orlando area are helping America grow and lead the national and world economies.

America's technological and economic strength is the result of its tremendous ingenuity. The USPTO has taken and will continue to take aggressive steps that will enhance quality and improve productivity to ensure that U.S. intellectual property protection remains the best in the world, protecting American innovation and sustaining economic growth.
