Inventors meeting 8/27/08

Part of the challenges we face is getting our ideas brought to life. Having a good looking prototype really makes a difference when you are trying to sell people on your idea. This week we are pleased to welcome back Mark Kemper of EMS to share with us some of the latest projects he has been working on. He plans on talking about some recent projects EMS did that included: scanning, product design, prototyping and production.
They include:
- A medical product
- The drummer leash product.
- looney pals shoes
- mechanical pencil product
- guardian lion kids GPS tracking product
Mark will answer many of your questions regarding prototyping and developing a polished product. Please join me in welcoming Mark to the meeting!
Also, we will hear from Startec about an opportunity coming up soon to become one of their next tenants. This will be a great meeting so don't miss it!

You asked, we listened. You wanted to hear from inventors who have successfully brought a product to the market and this week John Hobbs will share the trials and tribulations of getting his product to the market. John patented his innovative water bottle design, raised capital to design and develop it, and recently sold some on home shopping channel. He will join us on Wednesday to tell you all how he did it and answer any questions you have about his experience. But wait... there's more! John has also started a group called " Angels with Angles: Where Investors Meet Entrepreneurs" to help innovators network with other successful businessmen. John will share his vision of how this group works and how you could get involved. Make sure that you welcome John and learn all you can this Wednesday!
