The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) earlier this week announced the creation of the National Council for Expanding American Innovation (NCEAI), an initiative ostensibly intended to “build a more diverse and inclusive innovation ecosystem by encouraging participation demographically, geographically, and economically.” Reactions to the Council were mixed, with a number of IPWatchdog sources contacting us to alternately express their confusion, skepticism or support. We put out a call for official reactions to share these varying responses, which raise a number of questions to be monitored as the NCEAI moves forward.
