On March 5, 2026, the United States Patent and Trademark Office
<https://www.uspto.gov/> (USPTO) hosted a commemorative event ‘Alexander
Graham Bell’s Telephone Patent: 150 years, a world of connection
<https://www.uspto.gov/about-us/events/alexander-graham-bells-telephone-patent-150-years-world-connection>‘
marking the 150th anniversary of Bell’s telephone patent (granted March 7,
1876). The program brought together historians, technologists, policy
experts, and descendants of the Bell family to reflect on the invention of
the telephone, its impact on communications and society, and the continuing
role of intellectual property in shaping innovation.
