2017 - March Meeting

Location

Mark your calendar for this Thursday March 9th!
We welcome special guests; Enventys Partners and Edison Nation CEO, Louis Foreman!

Louis Foreman leads the strategic vision for all divisions at Enventys Partners, bringing exceptional expertise around intellectual property, open innovation and entrepreneurship. Over the past 20 years, Louis has created 9 successful start-ups and has been directly responsible for the creation of over 20 others. A prolific inventor, he is the inventor on 10 registered US patents, and his team is responsible for the development and monetization of well over 700 more. Louis served the Bush and Obama Administrations on the Patent Public Advisory Committee and is currently Chairman on the Small Business Administration's SBDC National Advisory Board

Louis Foreman will present "You have a great idea, what's next?"
Let's face it, coming up with Ideas are easy. The difference between a great idea and making money from an idea is the execution! When you have a great idea, you need to determine if it is feasible. So before you quit your job or cash-in the 401k, there are 5 questions you should answer BEFORE you start spending money on your invention.

Joining Louis will be Enventys Partners President Roy Morejon who will speak to the efficacy of crowdfunding as a means to get a new product to market.

This is a special opportunity to hear and meet these significant members of our inventor community. Come join us this Thursday!

We welcome back serial entrepreneur Josh Rifkin as March Inventor of the Month.
Come see Josh present Scratch N' Squeak Thursday!
