USPTO Director Kappos to headline Menlo Park event this weekend

The Bay Area Chapter of the Inventor's Alliance, a support and educational group for independent inventors, will host USPTO Director David Kappos at their meeting in Menlo Park this Saturday.

Mr. Kappos is expected to talk about proposed patent legislation reform and will be soliciting feedback, so this is an excellent opportunity to voice your opinion.

This should be a good event: Kappos is pushing some pretty hefty reforms at the USPTO and he seems to be very receptive to comments from the independent inventor community.

Tickets are $15 for members and $25 for nonmembers, and the Alliance's website claims that they will sell out fast.

Alright, independent inventors, here's your chance to connect with the big cheese at the USPTO!
