Any meetings or Meetups for the group.

September 2011 Meeting Pics

The September meeting featured a presentation about sleep apnea – and the devices to control it.  One of our inventors is a practicing dentist who specializes in treating sleep apnea – AND has invented a new device to revolutionize treatment.

August 2011 Meeting Pics

A couple of new inventors came to this month’s meeting.  Neither were new to invention, but were new to this group.

In addition, we saw Jan and Steve Zavodny for the first time in a long while.  Welcome back!  And we learned that Jan and Steve have an anniversary coming up tomorrow.  Congrats, guys!

 

June Meeting Photos

At the June meeting, Dan Templeton demonstrated some of the innovations his company Plastics Composites Company has been working on.

Following the hybridization techniques suggested by Val Prushinskiy (and by doing some wonderful creative thinking of their own), PCC has produced some product evolutions that either already are, or soon will be, surprising their competitors.

 

Very nice work, Dan!

April 2011 Meeting Pics

In April, an old friend came back to visit.

A long time ago, a fellow showed up at an Inventors Club meeting with an idea for a very unique material.  It was a foam that would be used in port-o-potties.  Like the traditional blue liquid, it would capture the effluent. Unlike blue liquid … No backsplash.  No bad smell (replacing that with a refreshing good scent).  Can’t see the effluent.  If bugs get in, they don’t get back out.  And it all breaks down to its original liquid in about 7 days.

Here’s Ben Westrick with Saint George’s Foam Shield – ready to buy!

Ben demo’ed the product for us and good-naturedly put up with a barrage of questions.  But, he was used to that – he just got back from a trade show where his booth was VERY BUSY all of the time.  Check it out at http://www.stgfoam.com.

Very cool, Ben!

March 2011 Meeting Pics

We had a good group here at NIIC this Saturday.

Nick Watkins was here to demo his iPhone app , Maximo, a sophisticated asset management system.

One of our previous inventor visitors, Ben Westrick, was featured in a new story about his chemical foam waste management product.

Ralph Merkel was here with the latest news about in his Titan toothbrush holder product.  He is thinking of offering it branded for schools and selling through booster clubs (as one of many target markets).

Come join us at our next meeting in April!  We’ll save you a piece of pizza!
