The Innovation Challenge

Engineers face barriers to turning breakthrough ideas into protected intellectual property

The Idea Problem

Many engineers have breakthrough ideas but lack resources to pursue them

Innovation potential remains unrealized due to resource constraints

The Time Problem

6-18 months typical timeline for patent applications to be filed

Many projects struggle to navigate the innovation development process

The Cost Problem

High costs for traditional R&D development cycles

Patent costs range from $5K-$25K+ depending on complexity

48-Hour Innovation Sprints

From breakthrough concept to working prototype and patent application development

Elite Teams

4-5 carefully selected engineers per team with complementary expertise

Focused Collaboration

Weekend sprints of focused work on specific technical challenges with expert facilitation and materials

Working Prototypes

Ship, don't talk. We build working prototypes, not PowerPoints or theoretical concepts

IP Development

Patent application development over 6-18 months with legal guidance. Participants receive equity in IP created during sprints
