ICW Participants Become Patented Inventors

Since 2018, participants at Invention Convention U.S. Nationals have had the opportunity to win a Patent Application Award, presented by several law firms that we partner with. Nearly 30 students have gone on to receive patents through the USPTO, an amazing accomplishment that we hope inspires more young people to dream big and never give up.
