【美国专利商标局】推出 SPARK 试点项目 强化美国在标准制定领域的领导地位
Time: 2026-03-10 Click count: 962
继美国专利商标局(USPTO)于 2025 年 12 月 29 日成立标准必要专利(SEP)工作组后,这一美国创新主管机构13日宣布推出一项新的试点项目,旨在激励美国中小企业、高等院校及非营利组织实质性参与标准制定组织(SDOs)的相关工作。

即将启动的 “标准参与与代表激励(SPARK)试点项目”(Standards Participation and Representation Kudos, SPARK)将针对性解决这一难题:向符合资格且为标准制定组织活动作出技术贡献或提供其他实质性参与的美国实体,发放限定数量的加速认证。此类认证可在美国专利商标局兑现,用于加快专利申请审查进程或向专利审判与上诉委员会(PTAB)提起的上诉案件审理,为参与标准制定的实体提供切实价值,以抵消其在标准制定过程中投入的时间与资源成本。

“美国在标准制定领域的领导地位对创新发展、产业竞争力及[敏感词]安全至关重要,” 美国商务部知识产权副部长兼美国专利商标局局长约翰・A・斯奎尔斯表示,“SPARK 项目认可中小企业、高校及非营利组织为标准制定带来的关键专业知识与创新思路,但这些主体往往缺乏大型企业所具备的持续参与资源。通过在美国专利商标局层面提供切实有效的激励措施,我们将持续助力更多美国主体参与到这一塑造未来技术的核心平台中,推动美国在标准制定领域形成更广泛、更坚实的代表性。”

SPARK 项目是美国专利商标局上月刚宣布成立的标准必要专利(SEP)工作组推出的[敏感词]举措。斯奎尔斯局长设立该工作组的初衷,是进一步强化美国专利商标局对完善美国专利制度、推动经济增长、激发创新活力以增进美国自由与发展的坚定承诺。通过 SPARK 项目及后续即将推出的其他举措,该工作组致力于实现其核心目标:促进各类美国发明人与企业实质性参与标准制定,并搭建新的沟通渠道,提升创新生态系统的透明度与可及性。

该试点项目的详细资格要求、申请流程及条款条件,将在项目启动时另行公布。
