American Innovators for Patent Reform (AIPR), a non-profit organization based in New York City, is a coalition of inventors, patent owners, researchers, engineers, entrepreneurs, corporate executives, patent agents and attorneys, and others involved in creating or protecting innovation and advocating for stronger patent protection in the ongoing debate on patent reform. AIPR supports full funding for the Patent Office, a 21st Century multi-tier patent system, reduced patent pendency, stronger U.S. Patents, and more vigorous patent enforcement.
