Meet 2003 Fellow Dan Ravicher, New York, NY: Public Patent Foundation

The big idea: What’s the mission/vision of your organization?

The
Public Patent Foundation protects civil liberties, public health, and
free markets from illegitimate patents by providing those persons and
businesses otherwise economically, politically, and socially deprived
of access to the system governing patents with representation, advocacy
and education.



Moment of Obligation: Why did you decide to start your organization?

I
decided to start my organization when I realized no one else was doing
what needed to be done, no one else would be better situated to do it,
and I had the support of others, including Echoing Green.
