Submarine and mobile communications once seemed just a figment of the imagination of writers. Today it is a familiar reality, without which we cannot imagine the modern world. A good idea is not only a gift to humanity, but also a valuable commodity.
It is necessary
An idea or invention, as well as at least a small amount of money
Instructions
Step 1
Patenting. The first step is to direct efforts to obtain a patent. This is a title of protection that is issued for an invention and certifies the exclusive right of its owner to use a patent for an invention during its validity period.
This right will cost the inventor at least 3 thousand rubles. But the idea becomes his property for two decades, i.e. if the project is successfully implemented during this time, the patent owner will be able to receive dividends from his invention
Obtaining a patent is a necessary condition. However, the shelves of the Russian Patent and Trademark Service, which occupy a 200-meter corridor, store thousands of folders with ideas and developments. Meanwhile, according to statistics, only one invention in a hundred gets a start in life.
Step 2
What to do next? As in the Russian fairy tale, there are three ways here: the first option is to receive royalties for the use of intellectual property. If the patented product is produced and sold, the inventor will receive a certain percentage - “royalties”.
The second option is to put the idea at the origins of your own business. In modern Russian realities, this is the most difficult path. A decent start-up capital is indispensable, and the prospects are very vague.
And finally, the third solution is the sale of the rights to the idea, i.e. patent. Thus, once having received a fee, the inventor loses the right to life dividends, however, he gets rid of all kinds of risks.
Step 3
You can sell a patent on your own. The Internet will be a reliable ally in this endeavor.
It's worth starting with creating a website or blog. By promoting a web page dedicated to an idea or idea, it is much easier to attract companies interested in innovation. So that potential buyers do not pass by, do not hesitate to leave a link to the blog on specialized forums and sites.
You can also use services for posting free ads that work with the purchase and sale of intellectual resources. Usually, such sites are a database of new product ideas, equipped with a convenient search system for customers.
Finally, you can use the services of patent brokers. They will provide professional assistance in preparing documents, developing a sales strategy for an idea, and finding a buyer. Some sites dealing with services of this kind are engaged in
the sale of intellectual property through an auction.
