The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is seeking proposals from parties interested in performing policy studies, conferences, and other development programs in support of fair international protection of intellectual property rights. The USPTO intends to issue joint projects and/or cooperative agreements to conduct these programs. On March 11, 2009, the President signed the Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2009 (H.R. 1105) into law (P.L. 111-8). The law, in part, provides that no less than $4 million of appropriated amounts shall be available only for the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) contribution in a cooperative or joint agreement or agreements with a non-profit organization or organizations to conduct policy studies, conferences, and other development programs, in support of fair international protection of intellectual property rights. In accordance with the law, all three requirements must be met in order for an organization to be eligible to enter into an agreement with the USPTO. First, the organization must be a non-profit organization. Second, the non-profit organization must have been successfully audited within the previous year. Third, the non-profit organization must have previous experience in such programs.
