Lemelson Foundation
The Lemelson Foundation is a private 501(c)(3) philanthropy founded in 1993 by Jerome H. Lemelson and his wife Dorothy.
==Origins==
Jerome H. Lemelson believed invention and innovation were key to American economic success and dynamism, yet he was also deeply concerned that American businesses and society were ignoring the origins of this innovation, which he believed were the minds and achievements of American inventors.〔Myrna Oliver, (''Jerome Lemelson; Inventor Held 500 Patents'' ), Los Angeles Times Obituary, October 3, 1997.〕 Lemelson conceived of the idea of a foundation that would support and celebrate independent inventors when he himself was a struggling young inventor. He envisioned a foundation that would promote the idea that young people should have scientists and inventors as their role models, and provide support for these budding inventors through grants that would give college inventors without seed capital the ability to develop, refine, and take their inventions to market.
A memorial video produced after Lemelson's death includes this statement he made in 1996: "I have had a substantial amount of success in the last five years licensing my patents, and I feel I have an obligation to plow back a portion of the income I made to improve the lot of the inventor in America, and to improve the future economy of this country".〔(YouTube - Jerome Lemelson - The Lemelson Foundation )〕 Jerome Lemelson created the Lemelson Foundation to promote these ideas and values.
