From drawing to granted patent. What a journey!

‍

The Cadi Kiosk patent is Cadi’s first and my first granted patent. This process was especially difficult and required patience. The patent journey started on July 7^th, 2016; I wrote and filed the provisional patent myself. The application included Cadi’s first drawing of the Kiosk and the distribution process. A beautiful image that brings back memories.  

One year later, Cadi hired a patent attorney. Cadi deployed funds from its first angel investor to pay the initial costs to file the non-provisional patent.  Cadi set ambitious goals of getting a broad patent for use among many sporting categories. Over time, the patent was narrowed but still provides excellent protection from competition.  

‍

This is a massive announcement for Cadi. It provides protection from competition but more importantly, it is a valuable asset to potential acquirers. The patent is a tangible asset that provides instant credibility and value.

Reminder, Cadi has recently launched a new fundraising round. All early investors receive a 25% or a 50% discount through bonus shares. This perk will be ending soon.  To invest in Cadi, visit www.cadikiosk.com.

On January 17^th, the patent is now published, and officially the patent was issued.
