FEBRUARY GUEST SPEAKER

Mr. Kelvin Chiddick, President of Sandys Holdings Ltd

.... Inventor and/or entrepreneur?

"In order for an individual to take his/her invention to market, he needs to
be both an inventor and somewhat of an entrepreneur. Unfortunately, these are
two different types and not all inventors have the attributes of
entrepreneurs and vice versa.

Working with inventors lately, I have noticed that once they have invented a
product, they seem to believe everybody will fall over themselves rushing to
buy their invention. From my experience, I believe only 5% of all inventions
actually get to market, unfortunately."

During the course of the evening, Mr. Chiddick will share with us a couple of
his own stories as an inventor and an entrepreneur, and he will do so by
talking about three of his inventions that are still being sold worldwide
today: his Nail Varnish Remover, Non Static Tack Cloths, and Solid Disc
Lubricant, Solid Friction Modifiers and Solid Lubricants.
