I have done all the research on art-form and found that there is nothing out there like my invention. I have identified a great need for the product and believe that it will be a large market seller. Ultimately I want to present the patented formulation to a hair care manuf. for sell or liscensing. How realistic is it to actually meet with upper management of a large company and who actually would I want to contact to talk to about the formulation and it's marketablility. Also, how much can a novel idea with large need be worth today? Dear Dr. Vandell, Particularly if you have done the research, there is great likelihood that you can be misled as to the patentabililty of the formulation. What is worse, even if it is patentable, the likelihood of getting a patent broad enough to protect the invention is small. If you can find a company to look at the invention, the bigger the company, the less likely they are to look or buy and if the idea is good they may find a legitimate way around what you have. It is not impossible. We start with a Reality Check (sm) to save time, money and worry. We have put 4 or 5 patents on the best collapsiable luggage carriers you see on the street. M. Arthur Auslander
