The Milford Bar Association presents LAW DAY!

I will be attending the MBA’s Law Day today at 1 pm at Stonebridge Restaurant.

The 2026 Law Day theme is “The Rule of Law and the American Dream.” The rule of law—the idea that no person is above the law—is what ensures the rights of the people to live their lives as freely as possible and to pursue their dreams. The ABA encourages all Americans to recognize Law Day on May 1, 2026, and to reflect on how the rule of law ensures all Americans have the ability to fulfill their dreams.

I attended the Inventors Association of Connecticut Meeting last night

I enjoyed the presentation last night at the Inventor’s Association of Connecticut (IACT) meeting via zoom.   Edwin Wold presented on Funding Options for Inventors.   Per Edwin:  “Funding is one of the most significant challenges inventors encounter on the journey from idea to market. This presentation examines the full range of funding options available to inventors, from self-funding and support from family and friends to angel investors, crowdfunding platforms, venture capital firms, and SBA loans. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how each option works, what investors are looking for, and how to prepare for funding conversations. Whether you’re just starting or ready to scale, this session provides practical insights to help you secure the proper funding to bring your invention to life.”
