Virtual Event: EurekaFest 2020

Hosted by the Lemelson-MIT Program, EurekaFest is a celebration that is designed to empower young inventors!

2020 marks the 25th anniversary of the Lemelson-MIT Program and although our celebration will not be in Washington, D.C. as planned, we are planning a unique, virtual EurekaFest on Wednesday, June 17th from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. ET.

You will meet high school students who participated in the 2019-2020 InvenTeam initiative, and college students who won the 2020 Lemelson-MIT Student Prize. This impressive group of students from across the country are tackling real-world problems through invention. You will also hear from Andrei Iancu, Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and Carol Dahl, Executive Director of The Lemelson Foundation, as they discuss the importance of invention in today’s world.
