The NPADC is a team competition that introduces law students to U.S. patent laws and regulations. It seeks to develop each participating student’s patent application drafting, amending, and prosecuting skills. 

The competition started with 51 teams and is now down to the final five. Each team will defend their strategy to a live panel of distinguished judges drawn from the greater patent community.
