PCT

Read a random definition: absent debtor

A quick definition of PCT:

Term: PCT

Definition: PCT stands for Patent Cooperation Treaty. It is an international agreement that helps inventors protect their inventions in multiple countries. This means that if someone invents something in one country, they can apply for a patent in many other countries at the same time. It makes it easier and more efficient for inventors to get their inventions protected around the world.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: PCT is an abbreviation for Patent Cooperation Treaty. It is an international agreement that allows inventors to apply for a patent in multiple countries at the same time.

Example: John is an inventor who wants to protect his invention in multiple countries. Instead of filing separate patent applications in each country, he can file a single PCT application. This will give him the option to enter the national phase in any of the countries that are members of the PCT.

Explanation: The example illustrates how PCT simplifies the process of obtaining a patent in multiple countries. By filing a single PCT application, inventors can save time and money. They can also delay the decision on which countries to enter the national phase until they have a better understanding of the commercial potential of their invention.
