A patent assignment is an agreement where one entity (the assignor) transfers all or part of their right, title and interest in a patent or application to another entity (the assignee).

For a patent to issue to an assignee, the assignment must have been recorded or filed for recordation in accordance with 37 CFR 3.11. See 37 CFR 3.81(a). (B) An assignment can be made of record in the file of a patent application, patent, or other patent proceeding (e.g., reexamination proceeding).

To be patentable, the invention must be statutory, novel, useful, and nonobvious. Certain requirements, such as novelty and non-obviousness, may involve conducting a preliminary patent search with the assistance of an attorney or agent.

A patent is considered as a transferrable property that can be transferred from the original patentee to any other person by assignment or by operation of law. A patent can be licensed or assigned only by the owner of the patent.

Basically speaking, a patent assignment is a legal way for an inventor to transfer ownership of a patent to a business. As you may recall, in the United States, only a person (or group of people) can be listed as the inventor of a patent; a business cannot be listed as the inventor.
