Help for inventors is coming to town!

Many of you already know about the huge Independent Inventors Conference coming to Tampa this week, April 27 & 28 but if it slipped past your radar, I urge you to register now! https://events.invent.org/iicon/  There will be two full days of USPTO sponsored education designed to fill in your knowledge about being successful with your invention!  There will be numerous breakout sessions so you can attend classes on topics you want to learn about.  They have a roster of talented speakers and information that you will learn from for two days, but if you are a TBIC inventor, you also get a free bonus!  One of the speakers, Dr. Pamela Riddle Bird will be joining us on Wednesday night to give you a preview of the event!  Dr. Bird is an internationally recognized commercialization expert.  She is the Founder and CEO of Innovative Product Technologies, Inc., a product and technology based market commercialization corporation located in Gainesville, Florida.  Dr. Bird is the author of Inventing for Dummies and is the founder of the Inventors Educational Foundation, a non-profit public charity to assist in the educational, as well as commercialization needs of innovators and entrepreneurs.  She has authored of over 70 publications and has been quoted and featured in numerous newspapers throughout the country. 

We have been lucky enough to have had Dr. Bird visit in the past so we know that this will be a treat for all of our members attending this Wednesday night, April 25^th from 7-9 pm.  Get off to  an early start this week and educate yourself at the next TBIC meeting!  www.tbic.us
