3rd Annual - InventVermont Presents... Vermont Inventors Annual Meeting on October 12, 2006
The October 12, 2006 meeting of InventVermont will be a non-confidential meeting during which several inventors will present their innovations to the public. Each participating inventor will be interviewed for about five to ten minutes, and will be given a brief opportunity to talk about and demonstrate one of their inventions. Each interview will concentrate on qualities and features of the invention, but it may include also some questions about how the invention came to be. Tables will be available for additional inventors that wish to show off their inventions, but are not able to participate in the interviews. The interview portion of the meeting as well as the inventions at the tables will be video taped for use at future InventVermont functions. The October 12 meeting will be held in the Noble Lounge at Vermont College, Montpelier, Vermont, starting at 6:00 PM
If you are interested in presenting your invention at this meeting please fill out one of the forms below. Deadline for signing up to present your invention is August 31, 2006.
