The Patent and Trademark Office Society [SOCIETY] hereby requests nominations for the 2013 Pasquale J. Federico Memorial Award.

In 1993, the SOCIETY established the Pasquale J. Federico Memorial Award. The Federico Award is intended to recognize outstanding contributions to the Patent and Trademark Systems of the United States of America. It may be given to an individual, a group of individuals, a corporation or an institution.  Awards to individuals may be made posthumously. No more than one award may be given in each year. The selection process is handled by a special committee of the SOCIETY.  Anyone may make a nomination.

Nominations need not be in any special format. It would be very helpful if the nomination papers themselves presented enough information so that the selection committee can judge the worthiness of the nominee.  Nomination letters and any other correspondence will become the property of the SOCIETY and will not be returned.  Any nominee not selected for the current Award may be retained on the nomination list for further consideration.

Please address all nominations and correspondence concerning this Award to  FedericoAward@PTOS.org

In order to be considered for the 2013 award, any nomination must be emailed no later than October 1, 2013.
