"Gladys E. López-Soto

Patent and Trademark Resource Center Librarian
University of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez Campus

At the University of Puerto Rico Mayagüez’s (UPRM) Patent and Trademark Resource Center, López-Soto helps students, inventors, and entrepreneurs turn ideas into reality.

Her knowledge of intellectual property—recognized across Puerto Rico and beyond—and the dedication she brings to educating her community have made her a “pillar of the innovation and entrepreneur ecosystem,” according to one of her nominators. López-Soto has brought many educational opportunities covering intellectual property to the university community and the public, including organizing the annual Innovation and Entrepreneurship Cycle—a virtual conference attended by hundreds of participants—and creating a website designed to help Spanish-language speakers understand intellectual property rights and how to protect them."
