who said what?

That reminds me to remark, in passing, that the very first official thing I did, in my administration---and it was on the very first day of it, too---was to start a patent office; for I knew that a country without a patent office and good patent laws was just a crab, and couldn't travel any way but sideways or backways.


(Mark Twain)


Innovation is impossible without inventors

Business has only two functions — marketing and innovation.


(Peter Drucker)



Joseph Schumpeter, known as the Prophet of Innovation, describes the importance of inventors in his Theory of Economic Development. Inventors are the "fiery-spirits" that disrupt the status quo with their vision of doing things 'better, faster, cheaper.' In the process, their inventions represent "the heroic intervention of individual men (or women) who appear as leaders toward new economic shores."

We believe that intellectual assets, commonly taking the form of patented technology, are the least-understood and most-relevant resources to stimulate economic development through innovation. To make this happen, intellectual property (IP) needs to be more comprehensively understood so that better business decisions can be executed. Interested in how to patent an idea or patent an invention using our patent search tools? This is why we are in business. An invention must have economic utility to benefit society. Sometimes, inventions are way before their time. However, most of the time, the business execution to commercialize the invention fails. In fact, those that conceptualize the invention rarely reap the rewards of the innovation's ultimate success.

In fact, we want to help inventors get beyond conceptualization and through the important stages of (1) gestation, (2) early incubation, and (3) late incubation.

We believe you are the engine that drives economic development, and the supporting cast fuels the innovation process.
