Hello, Juan C. Blanco, ITT’s Director of Product Licensing, checking back in one final time regarding the ASI Show Chicago 2008. We are pleased to report that the closing hours of the show brought additional leads for ITT Licensing™ on behalf of Invent-Tech inventors, and in industries that we had not yet met companies in during the event.
The trio of contacts consisted of New Hampshire-based Ready 4 Kits, a manufacturer who has been specializing in the manufacturing and marketing of sports and safety kits for 10 years as per their official website; La Jolla, California-based All Star Apparel, who has been producing caps and other sports-related accessories since 2002; and Birdie Ball, Inc., a Wheat Ridge, Colorado-based outfit that is open to reviewing all manner of golf accessories as per the conversation conducted with one of the representatives at their exhibit both.
We certainly have a fair share of follow-up to do with the numerous companies met during the 2 days of this terrific event, and we look forward to being able to bring you positive updates regarding the development of our relationships with them. Check in with the Invent-Tech Network in the coming weeks for any updates regarding these companies!

Hello, Juan C. Blanco, ITT’s Director of Product Licensing, checking in with our first update regarding Day 2 of ASI Show Chicago 2008. The proceedings have gotten off to a fast and productive start during Day 2, as ITT Licensing™ representatives have managed to make several solid contacts in the opening hours on behalf of Invent-Tech inventors.
The first company of note is Storus, a San Ramon, California-based outfit that specializes in the manufacture and marketing of a variety of storage products. In fact, during the conversation that ITT had with him at his exhibit booth, the President and CEO of the company showed our colleague at the show a jewelry box he licensed some time ago and currently pays royalties to the inventors on. The gentleman expressed a willingness to work with ITT Licensing™ in reviewing new product information on Invent-Tech inventor product concepts on an ongoing basis.
Rahway, New Jersey-based Inventures Products, LLC was the second entity that bears mentioning. The company’s Director of Business Development was our contact at the exhibit booth, and he provided further details on their existing product lines. The company currently markets personal medical accessories and emphasized that they are very willing to review new Invent-Tech inventor product concepts and to sign non-disclosure agreements as well.
The third company was a consumer electronics and computer accessories firm based out of Spokane Valley, Washington by name of MMI. We had the pleasure of meeting the company’s Sales Coordinator, who indicated that all invention material should go directly to her for review. According to their official website, the company has offices in the U.S., China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong and extensive distribution.
We are certainly looking forward to establishing Innovation Direct™ accounts for all 3 companies and building ongoing relationships with them that benefit Invent-Tech inventors. Check back in for a wrap-up of Day 2!
