Throughout the world, entrepreneurs work to promotetheir inventions. Inventions start with innovativeideas of inventors from different disciplines, and this is the way of Israeli inventions and inventors from around the world.

The first stage of an invention involves the inventor starting with a preliminary idea that he intends to improve upon, to make more efficient, or to enable a unique solution to a problem heencountered.Having a technical solution is the first step to registering a patent. The inventor must thereforedepict his solution technically. This is usually done through a fundamental design concept, i.e.theunpolished invention is modified, usually using planning and development specialists that develop products that will help the inventor. The planning team will start defining the writing by way of initial computerized 3D design sketches that illustrate the invention, and the way the inventor thought to solve the problem he encountered. The design concept can offer various options,withseveral ways to solve the problem. These options can either all be filed together as one patent application, or separately as several patent applications.

After the design concept stage of the invention, there should be enough technical details to start organizing the patent application. This stage is usually carried out by a patent attorney. The patent attorney will write the applicationhighlighting the main features of the invention, to obtain a patent that grants a monopoly of the rights of the invention to the inventor. The patent registration procedure defines the scope of protection and the rights that the inventor will be granted for his invention.For this reason,it is worthwhile to provide enough technical information to the patent attorney when hestarts to formulate the patent application, to enable him to evaluate all the details, and decide which are relevant to include in the patent application. Some essential details arenecessary to state in the patent application, but other details have noneed of protection, such asfacts that are commonly known to an average professional who works in the same field as the invention, or trivial details that do not constitute a step of the invention.

In editing a patent application, there are different chapters where the patent attorney refers to different aspects, in accordance with patent law. Some sections deal withthe background to the invention. These sections do not discuss the invention itself, but detail existing publications and information to accompany the drawing descriptions, which are then explained by the patent attorney. The technical details and description of the item is written in the Claims section; this section includes the parts of the invention which you want to protect. A patent officeexaminer will inspectthe patent application in its entirety, focusing on the section that defines the main scope of the protection available in the patent claim, to ensure the claim offers more than what previously existed in the field.

Inventions and patents influence the public in all walks of life. A patent is a form of agreement between the public and the inventor. Through patent office examiners, the state grants a patent to the inventor, to allow the inventor sole use of the monopoly granted to him for twenty years (although in special circumstances, an extension may be granted, or the period shortened in the case of non-payment of fees,) after which time the patent and the technology can be used by the general public at large.

Patents are an important tool for business entrepreneurship; entrepreneurs succeed in utilizing their inventions through smart use of their patents. This can be done by selling ownership rights to a patent, by licensing their use and receiving royalties dependent on the volume of sales, or some other business arrangement. Sometimes, the inventor or company that owns the patent produces the item or the process that is the subject of the patent in this case, the manufacturer can protect their invention from their competitors copying the patent.

Patents give a distinct advantage to the inventor and the owner of the rights to allow the inventor to protect his investment for the lifetime of the patent, which is an important incentive constituting one reason to justify registration of the patent.

It is important in these matters to consult with professionals on a case by case basis, in order to determine whether the invention satisfies the relevant criteria for the required procedure.
