UIA Weekly Webinar Series

Greetings from Warren Tuttle and the UIA. Hopefully each of you and your families are staying safe and healthy during these challenging times. Please remember, we are all in this together, so if there is anything we can do to help you, please let us know.   The full UIA Board and Team (https://uiausa.org/board-members/ and https://uiausa.org/ambassadors/) got together from around the country by video conference this past week and agreed to dedicate some extra time during the lock down, when most of us are at home, to share topical educational material with all of your membership, as well as inventors at large. The 501c3 Non-Profit UIA will commence a ten (10) week series of one-hour webinars on our new UIA You Tube TV Channel beginning this week on Thursday, 1:00 p.m. Central. We will be following the below schedule through mid-June. We will kick off the series with a terrific topic: Social Media and PR with Andrea Pass and Brian Scanlon. UIA Board Member Carmine Denisco and I will together host each week's program and all the featured guests for the duration will be either UIA Board Members, Ambassadors or Team Members. It's time you get to know all of these amazing folks who dedicate more of their time and resources charitably to inventors than you may be aware! We decided to run these one-hour webinars for convenience during the day every Thursday, but will post them afterwards on our UIA website (www.uisusa.org) for future reference. There will be some great content to share with your members.    Please help us get the word out to your members ASAP. Again the first of our series will kick off in only a few days, so we really appreciate the extra effort. We will be running the below posts on all social media platforms. Please feel free to share these posts also on yours. We will be holding these educational webinars every Thursday during the day, so not to conflict with any known local Inventor Club Meetings around the country. 1.)
