Patents & Invention
There are six talents I have and use to enhance my product design ability. First is my conceptual design talent. Next is my foresight. Another are my behavioral and cultural senses. And fifth is my talent for invention. Which ultimately is the power that drives my talent for innovation.
So far, I have written 19 patents, and 10 have issued. My portfolio of patents were held under a company I founded, MIL. Digital Labeling Inc. The patent portfolio was licensed, and later acquired by SMRxT Inc.
When writing and filing patents, I work closely with premier intellectual property law firm Coats & Bennett. Coats & Bennett clients include IP giants IBM, Infineon, Semtech, Ericsson. I have also worked with Fish & Neave, the storied New York IP firm. Fish & Neave claims legendary American inventors Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell and the Wright brothers as clients.
I do not think of Jeff Bezos as an inventor. I think Amazon, Goliath of business. However, when researching quotes on invention, I did come across this quote from him, that I do like and appreciate:
“Draw the big box around all of society, and you’ll find that invention is the root of all real value creation, and value created is best thought of as a metric for innovation.”
