How to Share Patent Assignment

In this video tutorial, Stuart Walsh from the Inventors Learning Center discusses patent ownership and how it can change through assignments. Initially, an invention belongs to the inventor. However, once it becomes a patent or patent application, ownership can be transferred. Being intellectual property, patents can change hands for various reasons. Common examples include the transfer of rights from employee to employer, where inventions created as part of employment, especially if the employer funds the patent, generally result in the patent being owned by the employer, even though the inventor is credited. Additionally, companies may transfer ownership of patents or portfolios during business transactions. For further information, viewers are encouraged to visit the website.

What is the problem with joint ownership of patents?

Each joint owner can independently sell, license, or otherwise exploit the patent without the approval of the other and without having to account to each other for their revenues. Without the cooperation of all owners, none can grant an exclusive license to a third party and so this valuable right is compromised.

Can you share ownership of a patent?

Patent law gives co-owners of a patent the right to make, use, license, sell and import the patented invention within the United States in whatever way they please, without the consent of the other co-owners. Joint ownership of a patent occurs simply by applying for a patent with other people.

Does a patent assignment need to be signed by both parties?

All parties must sign the agreement, with limited exceptions in situations where the assignor cannot be docHubed but where enough evidence exists that documents their intentions and rights. File the patent assignment with the USPTO within three months after the agreement is signed, paying the then-current fee.

Are patent assignments public?

The assignment records, relating to original or reissue patents, including digests and indexes (for assignments recorded on or after May 1, 1957), and published patent applications are open to public inspection at the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and copies of patent assignment records may be obtained

Can you have two names on a patent?

There may be more than one applicant named on a patent. These are typically referred to as co-applicants (if the application is still pending) or co-owners (if a patent is granted). In most territories, there are some limitations on what a co-owner may do both with and without the consent of the other co-owners.

Can a patent be assigned to another person?

In a license agreement, the patent owner gives another entity (the licensee) permission to use the patented technology, while the patent owner retains ownership. In a patent assignment, the original owner permanently transfers its ownership to another entity.

Can intellectual property be jointly owned?

All kinds of IP can be jointly owned, including copyrights, patents, trademarks, and trade secrets.
