Locascio, Under Secretary of Commerce for Standards and Technology and Director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, to request on behalf of USIJ to extend the public comment period for the recent Request for Information Regarding the Draft Interagency Guidance Framework for Considering the Exercise of March-In Rights by 90 days to May 6, 2024.
“The proposed changes contained in the Interagency Guidance Framework for Considering the Exercise of March-In Rights would upend this process and devastate the American innovation model that depends on predictable patent rights to empower entrepreneurs, incentivize investors and guard against monopoly dominance.”
