IDEA DEVELOPMENT BY INNOVATE DESIGN

It is important to develop the idea, looking at materials, manufacturing methods, functionality and aesthetic form prior to applying for protection. The process will help to resolve principle technical issues and is a core part of the product idea development of the project. As such, the design work will help the product to gain credibility and inspire confidence in investors, licensees or manufacturers.

Prototyping involves realizing the design in a physical form and this allows the designs to be further refined. It is often essential to prove that the product works, which can be done through prototyping. The prototype demonstrates and provides evidence of the product’s performance whilst also allowing for a more visual, presentable method.

This section aims to explore the benefits of designing, developing and prototyping your project and how valuable this can be when protecting product design ideas and presenting to industry. Having a professional presentation is as equally important as protecting your exact design, this section will explain this further.
