Inventing on the Job: Who Owns Your Idea? – Bold Insights on Employee Innovations
In this engaging episode of the Bold Inventor Show, J.D. Houvener and special co-host David Bosland dive deep into one of the most pressing questions for professionals in the workplace: Who owns your inventions when you're on the job? 🎙️ Whether you're an engineer, a designer, or a creative thinker, this episode unpacks the legal implications of innovating within a company.
From J.D.’s experience as a former Boeing employee to David's expertise in intellectual property (IP) law, they explore the fine line between personal ownership and company claims on new inventions. They tackle real-life scenarios where employees innovate outside their job descriptions but might still face claims from their employers due to contracts, tools used, or simply working hours.
Key Takeaways:
- 💼 Employer IP Rights: Understanding how employment contracts affect invention ownership.
- 🛠️ Work Tools Matter: How using company resources (laptops, tools, etc.) could mean the company owns your invention.
- ⚖️ Independent Innovation: Strategies to protect your ideas if you're creating something outside your job role.
- 💡 Freedom to Operate: The importance of clear contracts for inventors, especially when working as contractors.
Whether you're working at a large corporation or a small business, understanding IP ownership is critical if you're creating while on the job. Tune in for insights, real stories, and practical advice on securing your innovations!
