Open Innovation Portal is a scam

Licensing agreement, misleading argument
Open Innovation Portal seeking ideas, "something that seems fair & good." But the real goal is to steal New Technologies and no guarantee signed or licensing agreement with any inventor.

Open Innovation Portal is a scam, a complete sham

The purpose of portals is to lie, cheat, steal and spread theft; while the guaranteed profit is based on new technologies, they deceive and act in the most convenient way. Somewhere along the line, these people have lost their conscience and any sense of decency.

Inventors are the original owners of their invention, and Intellectual Property Rights are the most valuable assets a business, inventor or individual can hold.

Copyright protection lasts for the inventor's life and an additional 70 years, protected by specific laws for the expression of ideas in visual or audio format. Copyright is a form of Intellectual Property law.

Intellectual Property is a broad term that covers numerous forms of expression and innovation.
Intellectual Property refers to creations of the mind for which exclusive rights are recognized.

IP or Intellectual Property refers to creations of the mind for which exclusive rights are recognized. Such creations of the mind include inventions, expressions, business methods, industrial processes, chemical formulas, artistic works, names, designs, and symbols. Depending on the form, Intellectual Property can be protected by patents, trademarks, copyrights, contracts, or as a trade secret.

The term Intellectual Property (IP) is sometimes used as something separate from Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). In such cases, the term IP means the (abstract) product of the intellect and the term IPR means a legal right covering IP. For example, an invention and an original work of authorship are Intellectual Property and protected by the Intellectual Property Right to obtain a "patent" or "copyright".

The term IP is also used to denote things for which no explicit legal right is provided. An invention can be protected by a patent. An original work of authorship is protected by copyright. A distinctive product name can be registered as a trademark. But for instance, a domain name or a trade secret can be considered IP but there is no separate legal right to protect these. Hence they cannot be called IPR.

Ideas alone are not protected under Intellectual Property law!

For example, the Star Trek TV series features the so-called "transporter", by which Starfleet personnel could be "beamed down" to the surface of the planet. However, no details were ever given on how the transporter was supposed to work, or how anyone could build it. If someone today were to invent a working matter transporter that operated in exactly the same way as in Star Trek, he would still be able to obtain a patent on it. The disclosure given in the TV series would not be sufficient to destroy the novelty of the features of his transporter.

This does not mean that fiction cannot be used as prior art at all. If the fiction describes the invention in sufficient detail, it counts as prior art just like a technical publication would.

The "Donald Duck as prior art" case.
A example is the case of a method to recover sunken ships by filling them with buoyant bodies fed through a tube. The patent on this method was refused because it had already been described in a prior printed publication. The 1949 Donald Duck story, The Sunken Yacht by Carl Barks, shows Donald and the nephews raising a ship by filling it with ping pong balls shoved through a tube.

There are two primary ways to protect an idea under Intellectual Property laws.

➦ The first is if you did, in fact, reduce the idea to a protectable form before public information e.g., evidence for your work: Notary Public validating your signature on your creative work, emails, prototype, websites, videos...

➦ The second even if you did not reduce your idea to a protectable form as outlined above, that same idea, when expressed in a complete and detailed drawing that demonstrates the unique way in which the idea works,(validating your signature) is protected by Intellectual Property Law.

Likewise, an idea to create characters that transform into superheroes is not protectable. But the same idea graphically depicted with a written story is protectable under copyright law.

Summarizing:
Patent does not mean authorship or naming someone as Inventor. Patent is a license conferring a right or title for a set period to guarantee royalty payments on mutually agreed terms (20 years maximum), once a patent expires, the protection ends, and the invention enters the public domain; that is, anyone can commercially exploit the invention without violating the rights from the Inventor.

However, a patent doesn’t stop someone from stealing your idea, and many of the worst criminals are Large Corporations that steal on a regular basis, and have teams of attorneys that settle lawsuits out of court with gag orders attached, "they act in groups like Hyenas" confident that they will go unpunished.

Needless to say, many inventors have patented their inventions and later join the ranks of the desperate who unsuccessfully try to sell their patents.

Intellectual Property Theft

Intellectual Property theft occurs because it's easy to do and can be highly profitable. Thieves see something they think is a good idea, steals, and profit from it. They might rationalize it as a "victimless" crime and they aren't concerned with the consequences, which range from robbing the inventor or creator of their livelihood to damaging companies and reputations. Intellectual Property theft can steal tax revenue from the government and even support organized crime. 

Intellectual Property, they claim, should be abolished. They think it's perfectly fair for people to steal New Technologies, inventions, music, movies, books... This is also a defense of piracy, and the federal government disagrees with it. 

Reporting and Tracking IP Theft


Intellectual Property laws prescribe harsh penalties for Intellectual Property theft. Intellectual Property theft involves robbing people or companies of their ideas, inventions, and creative expressions known as “Intellectual Property”.

Intellectual Property theft and infringement violations are charged as federal crimes.
