The NWBC proposes to conduct a focus group study to probe in-depth issues relating to the gender gap in the grant of U.S. Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights for the time period 1976–2010. One of NWBC’s current priorities is to examine in-depth the relationship between intellectual property and women-owned businesses. Very little has been studied in this area, so the NWBC has crafted a study that is both quantitative and qualitative. The quantitative study will use USPTO data on patents and trademarks to determine the number of women entrepreneurs applying for and receiving patents, trademarks and copyrights. The quantitative study will also analyze the differences in the number of women applying for and receiving patents, trademarks and copyrights as compared to men, and will analyze sub-groups of women as well. The qualitative study will probe in-depth the questions raised by the quantitative study as well as those raised by NWBC. Six focus groups will be conducted, two with women participants who have received U.S. patents, trademarks or copyrights, two with women participants who applied for U.S. patents, trademarks or copyrights but did not receive a grant, and two with women participants who have not applied for IP protection. Title: Focus Groups: Intellectual Property and Women Entrepreneurs. Description of Respondents: Women who have received U.S. patents, trademarks or copyrights; women who applied for U.S. patents, trademarks or copyrights but did not receive a grant; and women who have not applied for IP protection.
