Innovation Direct™ to Begin Offering Comprehensive Patent Management Services

Miami, FL, October 10, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Innovation Direct™, a Miami, Florida-based leader in the field of intellectual property licensing for the past 13 years, is pleased to announce an enhancement to its current business model that will see the company offer comprehensive patent management services to inventors who have already secured that level of protection on their invention with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Innovation Direct™ has worked with independent inventors since 1997, and has secured over 250 licensing agreements for its clients during that time period, often employing its patent pending licensing strategy with success. The company is now prepared to implement a new aspect of its business model that will provide a variety of both promotional and patent management services to its inventor clients.

Innovation Direct™ will identify and communicate with potential licensees for the concepts through a variety of resources, including its dynamic new product information service for manufacturers, marketers, and distributors, Innovation Direct To Industry™.

Innovation Direct™ will also continue its long-standing tradition of attending industry-leading trade shows each year. In past years, Innovation Direct™ has participated in such leading exhibits as the International Home and Housewares Show, the SHOT Show, Licensing International, the National Hardware Show, and the Electronic Retailing Association Direct To Consumers Convention, and has garnered a number of important new manufacturer leads on each occasion.

Within its new patent management services, Innovation Direct™ will also be assisting its inventor clients with insuring that USPTO-required patent maintenance fees will be paid in timely fashion. Additionally, Innovation Direct™ will partner with skilled product developers to offer a referral service for those inventors wishing to obtain engineering drawings and physical prototypes of their product ideas.

"We are aiming to become a comprehensive resource for inventors for any matter related to their invention and most importantly, their patent," commented Peter Doran, Managing Director for Innovation Direct™. "We also are particularly excited about the potential that we believe that working with a pool of inventions and concepts that are already patented holds from the licensing standpoint."

As with all of its other inventor clients, Innovation Direct™ will offer those contracting them for patent management full licensing representation and negotiation services.

About Innovation Direct™: Miami, Florida-based Innovation Direct™ has been a leader in the field of new product licensing and intellectual property transfer for more than a decade.
