RESOURCES FOR INVENTORS

• Jumpstart Your Business Brain - if you read only one book this year relating to creating great new products, read this book. Required reading for every one of our inventor partners.
• Eureka Ranch / Merwyn / Doug Hall - Doug’s famous as a judge on American Inventor, but his bootcamps, lectures, radio shows, and Friday Freebies are a great asset for any inventor or small company.
• InventRight Home Study Course - simply the best resource for any inventor that wants to try to commercialize a product on his or her own. Stephen Key and Andrew Krauss are awesome.
• UIAUSA & Local Inventor Clubs - most major metro areas have their own local club, and UIAUSA is the national umbrella org. Networking with other experienced inventors and new product people in your community can be a great way to get started. We've spoken at multiple inventor clubs across the country and would be delighted to come and speak at your local club.
• The European Intellectual Property Association (EIPAWEB) - if you're an inventor living in Europe, some good resources here.
• Inventor Spot - an online community of interest for individual inventors.
