Network with like-minded inventors and entrepreneurs.
This month's meeting of the Akron Inventors Club will welcome registered Patent Attorney Jacob "Jake" M. Ward as he presents "You Don't Need a Patent If...". In this informative program, Jake will introduce us to some scenarios of where an inventor or business owner just might not need to get a patent to protect their intellectual property.
Mr. Ward is a founding partner of Ward Law Office LLC in Tiffin, Ohio. He is also a registered Canadian Patent Agent. Jacob is the founding author of the legal blog "Anticipate This!" as well as an adjunct professor at the University of Toledo, College of Law.
The Akron Inventors' Club is free and open to all with an interest in invention and innovation. Doors open at 5:30 pm for networking and refreshments. Meetings begin at 6 pm.
