DISCOVER YOUR QUEST
v
Contributors
at Quest have the opportunity to follow their passion and
work in a secure virtual environment with other like minded individuals.
v
Contributors can post
their ideas in a private forum where all members can vote and
comment on the merits and scope of the idea.
This is an opportunity to get expert advice from other members in
their field of innovation. v
Contributors can post
their patented inventions for public viewing at the Quests public face;
the general community can give Quest Members some marketability
feedback. The public will
have the opportunity to share with the Quest Members their consumer
insights about the invention as a product, as well as to provide Quest
Members with their opinion about marketability via a special rating
scheme.
v
Contributors can take
the feedback from the Quest community and/or the public community and
determine the next step.
v
Contributors may
discover it is best to abandon the idea or even, in
some cases, a finished product, and direct their energy to new prospects.
v
Contributors can also
take the feedback from the community and use it to improve the
concept or product and resubmit it to the community for further insight
or approval. v
Contributors can also
seek out other members whose input indicates they could add value to
their work and seek out their interest in collaboration. v
Contributors can turn
their attention to the postings of other Quest Members seeking
collaborators for their projects and see if there is a fit with their
skills, expertise and knowledge. v
Contributors will be
able to create secure spaces with other collaborators to work together
on projects regardless of the Quest Member’s physical location. v
Contributors will have
the opportunity to sort out conflicts between members on IP and other
issues through an arbitration function, which will be administrated by
Quest Members in similar disciplines. v
Contributors
have the unique opportunity to utilize an Open
Enterprise Governance Model for business development around their
product. Open
Enterprise Governance is a web platform where people can start and run companies in a new
decentralized way, building a platform for peer-to-peer
companies, which are more agile, resilient, and innovative. v
Contributors can also
collaborate with those involved professional Associate Members, to build a
traditional top down business enterprise, using the collaboration tools
offered by the Quest. v
Contributors can raise
capital at the Quests peer to peer funding website InventionFutures.com,
where Quest Members can post their patented inventions to attract funds
for developing the invention into a product. v
Contributors
can sell
their manufactured inventions at the Quests website, which is devoted to
showcasing and marketing products developed by independent inventors. v
Contributors
may also
wish to follow the example of Ben Franklin and make their inventions and
innovations immediately public and not apply for a patent.

this we should do freely and generously.”
