Description
This book is for engineers and scientists who have the aptitude and education to create new products that could become income-producing businesses for themselves and for investors. The book uses short chapters and gets directly to the point without lengthy and distracting essays. The rapid growth in technology-based business plan contests is a clear sign that there are many wealthy inventors looking to make substantial investments in start-ups based on new inventions by inventors, who lack the funds and knowledge to start a business. The key features of this reference enable readers to sharpen their new idea, turn an idea into a commercial product, conduct patent search and complete a provisional patent application, and collect requisite data and prepare a business plan based on a carefully selected business model. Supporting materials are provided on the book's extensive website
Written by an engineer with a business background and advanced education in business administration, the book provides a simple tested blueprint for engineers to turn their ideas to patent-protected products and a business plan to attract partners or investors
Shows engineers and scientists how to obtain patents to protect their inventions before using them as the basis for their businesses
Step-by-step worksheets take the reader through the entire process of ideation, product development, patent searches, provisional patent application, and how to prepare a business model
