-Devin Collins from the Research Institute and UNCC will come and speak with us as well about the upcoming venture challenge in December. This is a great opportunity for upto 5 INotC members to take their product in front of judges and be awarded a grant to help get commercialized. Devins talk will be a great introduction and guide line for November 8th pre-pitch day and December 6th Venture Challenge. This could be the chance you have been waiting for!!
If you are interested in getting help with your product then you will not want to miss these meetings.
-Always remember to invite friends or business associates which would benefit from INotC. Collectively we have a deep wealth of knowledge as a group. Invite other inventors, engineers, entrepreneurs, financiers, professors, manufactures and anyone else that would enjoy the process and business of product development. Knowledge is power!!
-Thank you for supporting the INotC! If it wasn’t for inventors and business professionals like you, then there would be no progress in this world!
We look forward to seeing you .
