KCNSC receives high number of invention patents

What do Amazon, Apple, Disney, Google and Nike all have in common? Their inventions were all started in garages. The brains behinds these businesses set-up shop in their garages to develop some of the world's most usable products/services. With this in mind, the Kansas City National Security Campus is by far the prettiest garage on the block as we consistently have employees developing new products and solutions every year.In 2016, there were 76 invention disclosures filed, 15 patent application filed and seven patents that were issued by the U.S. PTO office.
