Abstract
Documentation:
A patent has one or more applicants. An applicant is the person or corporate body that applies for the patent and intends to 'work' the invention (to manufacture or license the technology). Under US law the applicants must be the inventor(s) except in exceptional circumstances. On a resume or CV listing patents held or submitted, an individual might use the "Applicants" component when the patent is held or was filed with others ("co-applicants").
