WHAT IS INPEX® - THE INVENTION SHOW
INPEX® is The Invention/New Product Exposition. Featuring inventions, new products
and innovations, INPEX® is America’s largest invention trade show. Past INPEX® shows
have featured over 1000 inventions from 23 countries.
WHY DO INVENTORS EXHIBIT AT INPEX®
Inventors who attend INPEX® try to make contact with potential distributors,
manufacturers, and venture capitalists or establish a license or sales agreement. Each year,
INPEX® awards more than 100 medals, trophies and cash prizes in more than 40
categories. INPEX® also draws international media attention from sources such as CNN
Headline News, The Discovery Channel, USA Today and the New York Times. INPEX®
also offers learning opportunities to meet the needs of inventors and entrepreneurs with
the INPEX® Inventors University. A program of seminars, presentations and panel
discussions to provide information, the INPEX® Inventors University is something that
inventors may find useful in pursuing their ideas.
WHEN WILL INPEX® BE HELD
INPEX® will hold its 28th Show, June 19-21, 2013, in Pittsburgh, PA at the David L.
Lawrence Convention Center. For more information call the Publicity Department at
(800) 424-2089 x4163.
WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE ARE INVENTORS
Inventors come from all walks of life…truck drivers, nurses, senior citizens, children,
police officers, animal lovers, working mothers, etc. Inventors tend to have two things in
common: a strong belief in their idea and the persistence to attempt to get attention for
their idea.
WHAT KINDS OF INVENTIONS ARE SEEN AT INPEX®
Some inventions are household gadgets while others are highly technical. Some exhibitors
may only have a conceptual drawing while others may have inventory for sale. In 2012,
inventors exhibited their invention of a vending kiosk that would enable an individual to
clean eyeglasses or sunglasses. At the 25th Anniversary show in 2010, an inventor
exhibited his unique illuminating license plate frame alerting motorists of an emergency
situation. In 2008, an inventor demonstrated his mask and t-shirt combination for
individuals who work in environments where they are exposed to harmful air pollutants.
Different inventions are exhibited every year so you never know what you might see.
