Welcome to the Pennsylvania Inventors Association |
The Pa. Inventors Association is a Non-Profit Organization. We have regular meetings where a person can come and ask for advice on a product or invention they have or are going to develop. The members are not patent experts and do not want to lead anyone away from getting a professional attorney to advise them. Each member can tell you about their own good and bad experiences with patenting and marketing a new product. Most of all please do not call one of those 1-800 numbers Some of us know very well the cost of doing this. If you attend a few of the meetings and like what we are doing, we would like you to join us. The dues are $50.00 the first year and $35.00 a year after that. As a first year member you will receive an official Invention notebook with the P.I.A. logo on it. This book is to record the progress of your invention. For more information or to check on a meeting, you can call: P.I.A.
