Cracking the Patent Code Steve Sponseller

If you want to learn how to identify and protect the critical inventions developed in your business, you're in the right place. If you are confused about the patent application process and don't understand which inventions are worthy of patent protection, this book sheds light on those issues. You invest significant time, money, and effort developing new products and services. That means lots of late nights and missed family activities to perfect these inventions. You and your team are doing important work. Your inventions can make vehicles safer, get vaccines to patients faster, and provide improved teaching systems for kids. You want to protect those inventions just like you would any other valuable business asset. Patents provide a way to protect the inventions in your new products and services. Patents covering critical inventions in your industry provide a competitive edge during the life of the patent. In my experience, many companies do not understand the patent process and fail to properly protect inventions that are critical to the company's success. That's why I created the three-step system described in this book. The system has been tested with hundreds of companies of all sizes in a variety of industries. It's the same system I use every day with my own clients.
