Toolkit on Using Inventions in the Public Domain, now in French!

Submitted by Efua Halm on

The Toolkit on New Product Development (NPD) and Inventions in the Public Domain provides researchers, inventors, and entrepreneurs as well as Technology and Innovation Support Centers (TISCs) with practical tools for refining new product and service concepts building on inventions in the public domain and bringing these concepts to the market.

The Toolkit is a set of Excel spreadsheets and associated training materials developed to support inventors and entrepreneurs in developing new products or services as well as collecting and analyzing data about the project, and in some cases the spreadsheets have embedded functions that will complete an analysis based on the data entered. It has been developed to provide well-known tools for business management, project development design, evaluating risk, calculating value, and so on, to support you to evaluate an NPD project and make strategic decisions. 

The French version will help to reach more entrepreneurs across the world to better understand this vital tool for product development and business growth.
