The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and its equivalent in Russia are launching a one-year pilot program on Sept. 1 to fast-track each other's approved patent applications. Such "patent prosecution highway programs" allow patent offices to use each other's work to help process applications more quickly. The PTO first began patent highway programs in 2006, and has similar arrangements in place with foreign patent offices, including Japan, Korea, the European Union, Canada and Australia.
