After you’ve honed your problem-solving skills in Idea Lab, develop your idea into something worthy of a U.S. patent! Students will be invited to participate in this program based on the ideas, work ethic, and maturity they showed in Idea Lab. Over the course of 9 sessions, they will learn basic patent-drafting skills via a mock invention. They then have the opportunity to apply those lessons to the patent draft of their own idea. Concepts focused on in this club include patent writing and patent preparation. Registrants must complete the Idea Lab program before beginning Patent Lab. An early-bird discounted rate of $195 is available to advance registrants through November 30 with discount code PATENT22.
