Starting a patent harvesting program is key to building a company's Intellectual Property (IP) portfolio. Birds-Eye.Net offers a Patent Harvesting Starter Kit that provides the essential materials that companies can use to pitch and establish a new patent harvesting program or improve an existing one. The starter kit provides industry accepted guidelines for incenting innovative minds within companies to apply for patents as well as employment agreement addendums that can be used to secure intellectual property produced by members of any company's product development people.

Patent Harvesting Kit Includes:

• Patent Harvesting Document Guide
• Invention Disclosure Record (IDR) including:
  • Rational for Inventor
  • Substance of the Invention
  • Background Questions (Anatomy of completing an invention disclosure)
• Multiple Invention Disclosure Forms
• Employment agreement addendum
• Patent Harvesting Incentive Program Outline
• Patent Harvesting Presentation Slide Deck (MS Power Point - 26 slides)
  • Great resource for pitching your patent harvesting program to your technical and upper level management resources
• Listing of Reputable yet Economical Patent Resources including:
  • Individuals within specific Patent Law Firms
  • Law Firms Specializing in Patent Law
  • Solo Practice Patent Lawyers

This kit provides a head start for any company (large or small) who is pondering the initiation of a patent harvesting program. This compilation includes documenting ideas and how to successfully encouraging others to patent their ideas by completing invention disclosures, lobbying these ideas to lawyers, finding patent agents to write applications, applying for patents, finding lawyers to prosecute the applications, as well as helping defend these ideas during the patent filing process.

Who needs this anyway? Have you ever sat down with a vendor and told them how to improve their product only to find out later that not only did they implement your idea (or suggestions), but they want to increase their price. Perhaps you are a start up company with a lot of energy and great ideas but perhaps a bit ahead of your time - applying for patents may be the only way you can increase your company's valuation in the near term. The biggest mistakes that companies make in their pursuit of intellectual property is that they don't start out with a plan and they fail to allocate sufficient time for employees to carry through with invention ideas. The Birds-Eye.Net Patent Harvesting Starter Kit helps companies position the proper cornerstone on which to build a successful patent harvesting program.
