Unsolicited Ideas
From time to time, Newell Rubbermaid does post specific requests for technology
and innovation challenges on our Web site under
Technology Assets on the “Our Company” page. There are several requirements
to responding to a technology request – for instance, your idea must be patented
or patent-pending with a published patent application, and it must specifically
relate to one or more of the listed areas of
Technology Interests. Detailed information on how to respond to a specific
request for information or innovation challenge is provided on our Web site. Responses
will only be reviewed if they are submitted in accordance with the requirements
on the specific request.
