Directory of Inventors Groups
Are you an inventor looking for advice or resources? This directory lists inventors groups across the country, organized by state.
Eureka! You've got the next great idea -- a patent, maybe even a prototype. You can't get your product to market? Welcome to the club. Literally.
There are scores of inventors like you -- including Arthur Battaglia, the inventor profiled in the July 2002 issue of Inc magazine. And like him, you might find valuable advice and resources at one of the inventors groups across the country.
Most groups hold regular meetings, some require membership, and the level of formality varies. But the common thread is that they aspire to help inventors bring their ideas to fruition.
Note: We have tried to ensure that the information contained in this directory is correct and current. We do not endorse any of the groups listed. If you know of a group that should be added to this directory, please E-mail jennifer_redmond@inc.com.
