About Inventors' Club
Whilst many of us have innovative ideas, the journey from 'Idea to Marketable product' involves many new processes for most entrepreneurs.
At this event, we will be talking to innovators who have already brought their products to market or who just have a 'new idea' to discuss for feedback. Join us to learn about the journey, the problems to overcome and useful tips about bringing a new product to market.
The Inventors' Club is brought to you by the Business & IP Centre and is chaired by Bob Lindsey, Engineer and Business Consultant, with support from Mark Sheahan, successful Entrepreneur, and Richard Hicks an experienced Product Designer and Entrepreneur.
Speakers for Monday 27th April:
- Roman and Dawid, two smart engineering undergrads, will present a new take on the 'Alarm Clock'. No noisy sounds or jarring interruptions to your sleep. Just a system aligned with your natural biology, waking you up exactly how your body was designed to, all using … well, come along and find out. They will be seeking feedback on development and marketability.
- Isabella Chipana, an accomplished product designer, will present designs for women’s accessories seeking audience feedback.
