inventorspotlight_pgaThe Professional Golfers Association Merchandise Show is right around the corner in sunny Orlando, Fla., January 27-29.

The PGA show is where anyone who’s anyone in the sports industry shows up to see the latest in new merchandise and new innovation for both the golf and golf support categories. From clubs, bags, and ball, to clothing, games, cleaning supplies, and even beverage products.

For the inventor community there’s even more to offer. The United Inventors Association is hosting the Inventor Spotlight section of the PGA show. The Spotlight offers:

EXPOSURE to buyers from major retailers such as The Sports Authority, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy, Golfsmith, and even Target. This is your chance to come face to face with the people who can catapult your product to huge orders.

EDUCATION The UIA offers an inventor education seminar the day before the show. The PGA inventor seminar is a chance to have professionals in the industry teach you about the processes involved with commercialization of a product idea.
