In the first half the Innovation Divaz interview Perry Reynolds, VP of Marketing and Development for the International Housewares Association. Inventors who want to test the waters of interest with manufacturers and retailers without a heavy financial investment find a safe harbor with the Inventors Corner Pavilion at the International Home + Housewares Show held annually in Chicago. The Show is put on by the not-for-profit International Housewares Association (IHA).

Created 10 years ago as a way to showcase innovation and newness in the industry, the Inventors Corner has grown to be a premier destination point at the Show for buyers, news media and exhibitors. Beginning with just a dozen inventors and their creations, the Inventors Corner now features 60 companies spanning the breadth of Show categories from tabletop and kitchen products to general merchandise and pet supplies to health and beauty and home hardware. Many buyers make this pavilion their first stop at the Show.

In addition to the industry exposure, Inventors Corner exhibitors receive a free product evaluation during the "Pitch to the Pros" panels in the Inventors Revue, an educational destination adjacent to the Corner. The Inventors Revue features industry experts offering advice on product development and marketing interspersed with the professional review panels all Show days. Post-Show, inventors may have their product featured in Inventors Corner-sponsor, Invention Home's exclusive online presentation "The Inventor After the Show," which is linked on IHA's website, www.housewares.org and promoted in IHA communications to members.

Throughout the years, several inventors have found success for their products because of their participation in the Inventors Corner and others have gone on to take exhibit space on their own in their appropriate Show category.
