What is the Small Business Education Campaign?
Over the past year, the Administration has developed the Strategy Targeting Organized Piracy (STOP!) initiative, a comprehensive and coordinated U.S. government effort to smash the criminal networks that traffic in fakes; stop trade in pirated and counterfeit goods at America’s borders; block bogus goods around the world; and help small businesses secure and enforce their rights in overseas markets. The USPTO’s Small Business Education Campaign is part of this comprehensive government-wide effort to curb IP crime and strengthen IP enforcement – both domestically and overseas.
