We are pleased to announce the new Edison Nation Innovation Fund. The first of its kind, we are once again changing the way your product ideas are financed and brought to market forever.

When we launched Edison Nation, we partnered with major retailers and manufacturers to help them fill specific product needs through our Live Product Searches. Along the way we’ve learned that many great ideas come when you aren’t looking for them at all. With the Edison Nation Innovation Fund, we are searching for, investing in and bringing to market those ideas that break the mold.

The Fund was specially created to find product and technology innovations spanning any industry. Pitch those ideas that need to be discovered and if selected, we’ll invest up to $250,000 to bring it from idea to shelf — just like the ideas featured in our television series, Everyday Edisons. As a bonus, if you are an Insider and your idea has patent protection, you will be automatically entered into our brand new Insider Licensing Program.
