Your feedback has been amazing! I'm so excited that you all are enjoying Season 2 of Make48 and I'm even more excited that the show is inspiring you to invent and most importantly to INVEST IN YOUR IDEA (r)! 

Now that the winners have been announced, it's time for the teams to meet with manufacturers to help with their design and to help cut the cost of their products.  Make48 shows the importance of having a great team to support your inventions- Experts are critical! Check out how the manufacturers and designers improved the winning teams' products. 

While inventors can have great ideas and know everything about their inventions, they often don’t know how to go about protecting those inventions. They try to get patents to protect their intellectual property but make avoidable mistakes and spend unnecessary money—and sometimes invest their life savings in inventions that are not patentable or lose their intellectual property to invention scamming companies.

For people who need help navigating the patent office, All About Inventing Everything You Need To Know About Patents From a Former USPTO Patent Examiner & Patent Attorney is invaluable. Andrea Hence Evans, former patent examiner at the USPTO and current patent attorney, has written this book to explain different types of patents, patent prosecution, how to avoid and correct rejections, and more! This book will help you understand your options to protect your invention and help you navigate your patent application through the USPTO.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT!
