A patent can provide valuable intellectual-property rights.
But a patent doesn’t automatically provide:
- Customers
- Manufacturing
- Distribution
- Revenue
- Investors
- Licensing
- Marketing
I’ve seen inventors become so focused on obtaining intellectual property that they forget to ask the commercial question:
“Who is going to pay for this?” AND “How will I make money from this?”
At Inventors Arena, we encourage inventors to think about IP and commercialization together.
