The Power of Invention Education
We asked real Invention Convention teachers why STEM programs like ours matters. Listen to hear their testimonials and what their students gained by participating in the program.
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.
