摘要
Women are named as inventors on fewer than one in five patents even though more women are entering the science and technology fields. With the increasing importance of intellectual property to the economy, addressing this gender disparity is fast becoming a business imperative and an issue of global competitiveness. On November 10, 2015, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) held a roundtable discussion to discuss what forces are driving this disparity and what we can do about it.
