Hear from Successful Inventors at the 2007 Inventors Conference on Oct. 4

September 20, 2007 Lexington, KY – What do a vaporizer, Bibb lettuce, Maxwell House coffee, a traffic light, Preparation H, a gas mask and a cheeseburger all have in common?  They were all invented by people from Kentucky!  At this year’s Inventor’s Conference, you can not only find out about Kentucky Inventors past and present, but also find out what you can do!

Central Kentucky’s 3rd Annual Inventor’s Conference, themed “Celebrating Kentucky Inventors”, will be held on Thursday, October 4th at 6:00pm at the Central Lexington Public Library.   This event will be free and open to the public. 

Inventors will be discussing their experiences about how they got from the idea stage to an actual product.  Presentations will include information on the invention process from the Central Kentucky Inventors Council, on assistance and services available from the Bluegrass Business Development Partnership, on valuable research information available from the Lexington Public Library, and on rapid prototype development from the University of Kentucky Center for Manufacturing. 

This year’s event will also include many inventors exhibiting their inventions alongside information about their Kentucky inventor counterparts from history.  For more information on the conference or to download exhibit application forms go to www.ckic.org/news.html
