This week I filed my patent with the PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty) through the World Intellectual Property Organization. The USPTO allows an inventor the option of whether to publish the application or not, I chose not to to avoid the IP being exposed as long as possible. The PCT does not afford such an option and the patent is now ‘out there’ for all to see.
The consequence of this is that organizations that monitor new filings have flooded me with inquiries. All to the good but coming at a time when we are fine tuning the generator to spin up and test.
Needless to say, as a new inventor, I am pretty excited.
