Pinkos Parts Ways With PTO
The Patent and Trademark Office's second in command, Stephen Pinkos, will leave his job by late March, the PTO confirmed on Wednesday. Technology Daily's PM edition has the details of his departure and his imminent move to the Lone Star State.
PTO Director Jon Dudas called Pinkos "a true leader in the intellectual property world who has earned the respect of members of Congress, international IP policymakers and his colleagues." Pinkos helped achieve record low error rates and the highest level of electronic filing and processing in PTO history, Dudas said in a press release.
Pinkos noted that he had "never seen a government agency so focused on producing real results" and said PTO employees have "great ideas, great enthusiasm and great dedication."
