About Us

imageIncorporating Innovations LLC was founded by Charlena Thorpe, a patent attorney with over a decade of patent experience.  After working with Fortune 100 and 500 companies at large law firms, Charlena Thorpe formed her own law practice, The Law Office of Charlena Thorpe, Inc.  There she began working more with individual inventors that desired to protect their ideas but, unlike large corporations, lacked the knowledge to commercialize their ideas. Charlena became more than a patent attorney to many of her clients but also a motivational speaker and business consultant.  Charlena strongly believes that education is a vital key to business success. Charlena's mission for Incorporating Innovation is not just to educate inventors in a structured environment but also to motivate and assist inventors to achieve their dreams.

Charlena has worked with numerous inventors to build businesss around their idea and has teamed up with one such inventor, Margarett Wilson, creator of the Snazzy Napper®, to help other inventors build a business around their ideas.  Margarett has successfully manufactured her patented product and built an Internet business around her product.  Her product also is on the shelves of a retailer.  Margarett's product has been featured on CNN, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and other network shows.  Margarett's product also has appeared in infomercials.  

Along with her expertise in the patent field, Charlena has teamed with seasoned professionals in the fields of business, funding, marketing, industrial design, and manufacturing to provide this one-of-a-kind education and service to individual inventors.
