Warren Tuttle is dedicated to connecting independent inventors with large corporations, while pioneering a unique, hands-on approach to open innovation. I have been interviewing inventors for about 10 years now and his name is one that has been mentioned to me most often as an interview recommendation.
As you may know from listening to the Invention Stories Podcast, I have come to the frustrating conclusion that the invention process is broken. I would like to know why the independent inventors rights appear to be placed so low by those who create the laws.
The night before the interview with Warren, I had a hard time sleeping because not only was I interviewing the President of the United Inventors Association but because I wanted answers. So right before this interview I drank a lot of coffee and well…we invite you to listen to Episode 65…Warren Tuttle, President of the United Inventors Association.
