‘A country without a patent office and good patent laws is just a crab, and can't travel any way but sideways and backways’


advantages from the inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously”. The Fidget Spinner was one of the biggest fads of


2017. The palm-sized spinners consist of a ball bearing, which sits in a three-pronged plastic device. It was the biggest schoolyard phenomenon since the yo-yo and it felt like everyone under the age of 18 owned at least one. There is a lot of mystery surrounding the inventor, but one person who stands out is Catherine Hettinger, who held the patent on finger spinners for eight years. However, she surrendered it in 2005 because she could not afford the $400 (£310) renewal fee. These are just a handful of the inventors who didn’t


adequately protect their intellectual property. One who has changed our lives in a way we could never have imagined is Sir Tim Berners-Lee, who invented the World Wide Web. He didn’t put a patent on it on purpose; as he was determined it would be free for all. Mark Twain, the literary genius behind ‘The


Adventures of Tom Sawyer’ and ‘The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn’, once said: “A country without a patent office and good patent laws is just a crab, and can't travel any way but sideways and backways.” So, if you want to move your ideas and inventions forward, then a patent is the place to start.
