In an effort to educate consumers about the global economic importance of trademarks, the USPTO will host a trademark display at its Alexandria, Virginia headquarters on April 10-12, 2008. Companies with a registered trademark are encouraged to apply for one of the exhibit spots.The deadline for applying is December 15, 2007. Those chosen to exhibit will be notified by January 15, 2008.
The USPTO's criteria for selecting the exhibitors are:
- Brand recognition - How well-known is the mark?
- Educational value of the proposed exhibit - How would the trademark holders participation help educate the public about trademarks?
- Category diversity - Does the applicant's participation help ensure the Expo has a wide selection of trademarks?
