How do ideas get turned into inventions?
During and after the sessions, the invention team determines the feasibility and originality of ideas through research and discussion with the inventors. These activities eventually culminate into the drafting and filing of patent applications. Once filed, it typically takes 18 months until that application is published, at which point it is then available for public viewing. It is usually about six or more months after the application has been published before the patent is reviewed and issued.
