Inventors Publishing & Research (IP&R)

Inventors' Publishing and Research (www.inventorspublishing.com), founded 10 years ago by Steven Barbarich, is one of the most successful firms helping inventors market and license their patents. IP&R has developed a proven process, executed by highly skilled professionals, for converting patents into royalties.

Unlike other companies that try to help inventors marketing their inventions, IP&R employs category experts who focus on a relatively small number of projects in each category (including hardware, sporting goods, technology, toys, housewares, gift, health and beauty, medical, outdoor, office, lawn and garden, automotive, and more). Unlike other firms, which acquire contacts through direct mail or other ineffective means, our managers go on the road and give presentations to most of the major manufacturers for consumer products. We also meet manufacturers at industry tradeshows and at our office in San Francisco.
