There are times when we have a particular focus area in mind for new ideas, and we would like specific suggestions. When this happens, we will issue an Invention Challenge. It could be a particular market, product category, innovation, or technology. Submissions to the Invention Challenge are going to be most aligned with our present needs. After all, we issue the Challenge to get as many ideas as we can for a marketplace opportunity we have identified. It stands to reason that your idea will have the best chance of going forward if it addresses one of these needs.
We have no particular challenge at this time, but CHECK BACK HERE AGAIN!
