INPEX (Invention and New Product Exposition) was an invention trade show, held from 1985 to 2017 and organized by the invention promotion firm InventHelp. The annual show was held each June in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
INPEX provided a forum for inventors to exhibit their inventions and pitch their ideas with companies interested in licensing, marketing or manufacturing their new products.
This trade show also hosted contests for domestic and international inventors (45 different categories), as well as seminars and workshops for both inventors and business attendees within the George Foreman Inventors University. The annual sponsor and producer of INPEX, InventHelp, markets promotional services to amateur inventors.
Inventions at INPEX ranged from simple products to highly technical devices, displayed as models, prototypes, or as a finished product for the mass market.
