PRESENTING YOUR INVENTIONS OR SERVICES IN THE USA
SVIIF BENEFITS
As a participant in the Silicon Valley International Invention
Festival (SVIIF) you benefit from the most extensive support and resources available through any exhibition. The Festival is under the patronage of the International Federation of Inventors Associations (IFIA) and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
The SVIIF was created to publicize state-of-the-art inventions around the world and provide a unique opportunity for inventors to receive internationally recognized awards of excellence as a result of their efforts.
The Festival is a unique gateway between East and West for inventors and investors to promote products and cultivate markets across borders — a link between Geneva, Switzerland and the Silicon Valley, California .
Who can participate?
You have developed an invention that is worth selling.
Next steps might include contacting manufacturers, commercial agents, investors, and promoters who can distribute your product worldwide.
Our experience shows that doing all this yourself takes a long time and costs a lot of money… with no guarantee of success.
Perhaps your product is already being manufactured and sold in some countries, but you’d like to expand into other countries and learn how to negotiate licenses there or learn how to operate in new areas.
The IFIA organizer bring 55 years of working with inventors in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, providing connections within our network of professional buyers from all over the world.
The Silicon Valley International Invention Festival is the safest place to get the exposure you deserve and open new channels for marketing your inventions.
