Assuming an inventor’s submission containing my unique identifying number is chosen for commercialization, who would be my client – the inventor or Edison Nation?
When submissions are chosen for commercialization, Edison Nation acquires ownership of all of the inventor’s rights, title and interest in and to the invention. Therefore, Edison Nation would be your client. Edison Nation urges you to consult your jurisdiction’s Rules of Professional Conduct to ensure your participation in the PARP does not conflict with your state’s conflicts of interest rules.
