Me and Inventing
Truth be told, I am not entirely sure how many patents I have.
I was awarded the title of Master Inventor during my 8 year stint at IBM for my work in IP serving on a few review boards, assisting lawyers, and mentoring (oh, and for a few patents along the way).
By the end I had submitted 173 invention disclosures, 49 of which where filed as patents. I have been able to find 10 granted US patents, 5 EU, and 1 from China. 17 others are still in review with the USPO. The rest presumably are on hold or dropped – at least in the US.
For me, the benefit was 3-fold:
A) a good way to make a little cash
B) 50/50 imagination and a clever
little puzzle activity
C) a good way to make a little cash
With the cash pretty much behind me now post IBM, I’m fortunate the puzzle fun still manifests itself in other ways.
Well-loved. Like or Dislike:
