Free-ish offer to all teams to help with IP work
FIRST Team 1296, the Full Metal Jackets, are looking to give back to the community with an unusual offer. I was the original lead mentor and my son was on our first year team. My son, Blake, has since moved on to a BSEE from Baylor and a law degree from SMU. Blake is a registered patent attorney. We have joined forces in an engineering and intellectual property services company. These are the basics:
1 - If a current or last season enrolled student is a named inventor we'll draw up the patent for free. The inventor(s) need only pay the filing fees. 2 - If a current mentor (one full season, kickoff through champs) is a named inventor, we'll draw up the patent for a "friends and family" rate. The inventor(s) pay the filing fees. 3 - If a company is a current major sponsor ($2,000+ for two or more years) of an active FRC team, a SBA small business and a private entity, we'll draw up the patent for a "friends and family" rate. The inventor(s) pay the filing fees. There are always caveats ... we respectfully expect the inventors to participate in a reasonable patentability search and that the resulting intellectual property have some potential commercial value to the inventor(s) relative to the normal cost of prosecution. The inventor(s) must particpate in the transaction with timely responses to questionnaires, reviews of narrative content, payment of filing fees etc. And of course this offer is subject to our time and availability. PM me for details! www.rockwallrobotics.com www.clariortechnical.com www.buchananiplaw.com Last edited by wireties : 29-06-2016 at 20:07. |
