Austin Patent Attorney, Craige Thompson, is Featured Exhibitor at Austin's Tech Breakfast

Craige Thompson, President, Thompson Patent Law, and members of his Austin patent law firm will exhibit and present at The Tech Breakfast Showcase 2017 on Sunday, March 12, 2017, from 9AM to 1PM.  The event will be held on the rooftop deck of Fogo De Chao, 309 E. 3rd St., Austin, Texas

The event attendees are in the entrepreneurial, startup, and high tech communities.  The breakfast will occur adjacent to the world-renown SXSW Conference, which is happening at the same time in Austin. The goal of the event is to get innovation communities together and to demonstrate new innovations and technology.

Tech Breakfast organizers, Ron Schmelzer, Chief Event Wrangler, and Kathleen Walch, Content and Innovation, noted that the event began in 2011 and now has grown to over 4,700 participants, sponsors and exhibitors.

The event will include a buffet breakfast, 18 kiosks and corresponding technology product demonstrations.  Even though the event is free, registration is required to attend. 

Thompson and his team will be available to answer all questions about how to secure a patent. A highlight of his appearance will be his “Patent Magic Trick” and copies of a free report, Five Savvy Questions to Ask Before You Hire a Patent Attorney.

Thompson is the best-selling author of Patent Offense: 7 Steps to a Safe, Secure Patent Portfolio and Local Business Mavericks, Volume 10. He began his career as an Electrical Design Engineer went to work for an electronics design and manufacturer that specialized in product concepting, design, commercialization, and manufacturing. There he honed his design and development skills in a wide variety of commercial, industrial, and consumer products.

After ten years in design, Thompson went back to school to get his law degree. This led him to Fish & Richardson P.C., the preeminent patent/IP law firm in the country. He won acclaim for his ability to find weaknesses in opponents’ patents and became known as “The Patent Killer.” He was also able to account for those weaknesses when writing a patent, and due to being able to write a patent that quickly advanced through the USPTO, soon also became known as the Patent “Examiner Whisperer.”

This culminated in the creation of Thompson Patent Law, a boutique Austin, TX, patent law firm that specializes in patents for electronic/electrical, mechanical, electro-mechanical, and software. They write Litigation Quality Patents that are designed to stand up to the scrutiny of litigation and believe that every patent should be viewed and treated as a valuable business asset. While they work with Fortune 100 companies, they enjoy working with entrepreneurs and startups to help them “out-patent the Fortune 100,” making sure all patents start the right way.
