Completing a Disclosure
Your invention disclosure provides us with a description of the invention, identity of any co-creators, source of any research funding, interest by the market, and previous disclosures to the public. This information will be provided to outside patent counsel to start the patent filing process and to our internal team to begin the marketing evaluation. You will receive confirmation when we have recieved your disclosure along with its technology identification number.
Post-Disclosure Considerations
After you file an invention disclosure, our team will evaluate your technology in several areas including market size, competitive analysis, prior art, patent landscape, technical merit, and growth potential to gather a more robust view of market needs and patentability. During this process, someone from our office may contact you with additional questions. Once an invention disclosure is submitted and accepted, please inform us of any new developments or publications that may describe improvements to your invention.
