NEW YORK, N.Y., Jan. 1, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - World Patent Marketing, the world's fastest growing patent and inventor services company, announces plans to open the New York Inventor Exchange (NYIE). The New York Inventor Exchange is the first of its kind and will level the playing field for small inventors being bullied out of the intellectual property marketplace by multi-national corporations with deep pockets.
"Launching the New York Inventor Exchange is a very proud day for us," said Scott Cooper, Managing Director of World Patent Marketing. "This has been my dream for almost five years. America was built on the premise that a small inventor can have a dream, work hard and make that dream a reality. The American Dream today doesn't even seem real to many average Americans. I work with inventors everyday that have great ideas but don't have the money and can't afford to go through an expensive patent process. Our goal is to change that. Our members will stay ahead of the curve by participating in a new marketplace intended to spur innovation with least-cost solutions."
In September of 2011, President Barack Obama signed legislation that overhauled the U.S. patent system for the first time since 1952. Among other things, the measure, dubbed the America Invents Act, transitioned the country to a "first-to-file" system, instead of the current "first-to-invent" approach. Issuing patents to the first person or company to file was supposed to help provide clarity in the patent-granting process. The measure also was also supposed to help provide adequate funding to the overwhelmed patent office by allowing it to set and keep its own fees.
"We have to do everything we can to encourage the entrepreneurial spirit wherever we find it," President Obama said at a signing ceremony at a high school in Arlington, Virginia. This measure "cuts away the red tape that slows down our inventors and entrepreneurs."
"America is all about helping the little guy," said Steven Harris, Famous Gay Inventor of Teddy's Ballie Bumpers and Publisher of Bear Life Magazine. "It doesn't matter where you come from, everybody deserves their shot at the American Dream."
