The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) recently announced plans to establish a new regional office in Atlanta, Georgia, joining current regional offices in San Jose, Detroit, Austin, and Denver. The USPTO will also open a community outreach office in Strafford County, New Hampshire. These new offices will cater to innovators in the Southeast and New England regions, respectively. They aim to support local inventors and entrepreneurs, with a particular focus on those from underrepresented backgrounds. The Atlanta office is set to become operational by December 2025, followed closely by the opening of the New Hampshire office.
