On December 1, 2011, the Icelandic Patent Office and the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), launched a pilot program on Patent Prosecution Highway (PPH), enabling applicants, whose claims have been determined allowable/patentable in an application filed in the IPO to have the corresponding application filed with the USPTO advanced out of turn for examination.
