Charley Macedo Provides Commentary to IPWatchdog on Ideal Candidate for Next Director of the USPTO
IPWatchdog
Charley Macedo was invited by IPWatchdog as part of a
panel of experts, to weigh in on what the profile of the next Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) should be.
Charley noted, “I think the priority should be identifying an excellent administrator who will promote a strong but fair patent system, which history has shown encourages investment and innovation. From an operations and patent policy perspective, Undersecretaries Iancu and Kappos are two of the best administrators the USPTO has seen in recent times. I would welcome their return, or to have someone similar follow in their footsteps.”
