Davison Inventions (www.InventionConcept.com) is a company that claims to take people’s ideas of new inventions, and turn them into reality. Davison says that it will take your idea through all the steps necessary to get your invention onto the market, from research and development to licensing to getting it onto the shelves.
Davison’s website claims that you have the ability to submit your idea to them knowing that you have full confidentiality and protection. Once your idea is submitted, you will receive a one on one consultation about the viability of your idea, and whether or not you should begin the process to take your idea further.
Davison claims to have a variety of agreements available for potential clients. Some services they offer will require you to pay one time, up front fees, while others will require you to commit to an agreement where Davison receives a percentage of royalties from your invention.
From Dream to Reality
“Build a better mousetrap, and the world will beat a path to your door.” From the time that man created fire, there has been an innate desire to come up with better ways of doing things. If you take a minute to look around you, at the things we take for granted every day, you’ll see the evidence of people’s invention dreams that came to life.
But, unlike the picture painted in Hollywood films, most of these inventions weren’t created in someone’s basement and then magically appeared on the market. Inventions must go through an intense process of research and development – is it truly an original invention? Is there someone else out there with a comparable idea or existing product? Is this invention already in the works?
At times an idea must be patented, which can be an expensive and complicated process. After that, an invention must often be licensed to another company or corporation to produce and distribute, because individuals usually lack the money necessary to fund the actual supply of product needed for the market.
Davison Inventions claims to help you through this long, arduous process, and to get your invention on the shelves of major retailers like Target, WalMart, Home Depot, and others.
Davison Inventions Success Stories?
Well, the truth is that when you research Davison Inventions, you are going to hear much more about heartbreak and failure than you will about success stories. In fact, Davison was ordered to pay $26 million in restitution to former clients after they were sued by the Federal Trade Commission and lost.
The lawsuit determined that clients of Davison would often pay upwards of $10,000 toward costs and services, and that less than 1% of their clients ever saw a return higher than what they invested with Davison.
In addition, they were told to stop promoting themselves as being linked to major retailers. However, if you look at their current website it seems fairly obvious that they are walking a fine line in adhering to this court order.
Their landing page is covered in logos from major retailers, with information offering that inventions processed through Davison are sold at all of these stores. While there is no official statement saying they have a relationship with these companies, the implication is still there.
Finally, the lawsuit ordered that Davison refrain from acting as though their services are selective, since they were found to take anyone’s idea through the research and development process as long as they paid the fees. This is a bad sign for those looking to process an invention, because it means that you can’t trust Davison’s evaluation of your invention’s potential. If they are simply willing to take everyone’s money who comes to them, it’s easy to see how 99+% of their customers never saw a profit from their dealings with Davison.

When I finally spoke with they said I could present something to them or for a fee they could build it for me (1st red flag bc I thought my product was ready). Let's just say im expecting a call from them in 5.4 seconds and seeing these post "thank God" I will NOT lose my money to them. They have my idea and I'm sure it'll be on the market tomorrow hahaha but not in my name.... I'll take that lost.
Thanx for all the post everyone!
Xoxo
But seeing these bad post got me thinking other wise.
I work too have to lose out on my money!
I have since found a company called Lambert and Lambert who handle invention/ ideas and they have an evaluation fee of $199.00 and they will evaluate your idea, which will take about 3-5 weeks and they will give you a detailed evaluation of just how good or bad your idea is.
If Lambert decide to license your idea, they will do all the development costs and packaging of the product and present it to a company at their own expense. In return they will ask for a 35% take of any royalties that you receive.
This certainly is remotely different to Davison, who by all accounts are scaming people out of their hard earned money.
Sincerely, Ramiro

Thank You
Hopefully you're doing well. Last time you spoke with our firm we explained the initial stages of getting the uvizz Eyewear in front of a company that sells products to stores. All indications are that you're passionate about your idea, so we wanted to get in touch with you today.
This morning we received notification from our Administrative Department that there are a few days left on a savings offer Daniel Karetski extended to you on your idea. The opportunity to take advantage of the 10% savings towards the pre-development service is set to expire soon. If you don't take advantage of the savings offer now, you will have to pay the full pre-development amount up front to start your project at a later date.
I know Daniel Karetski will be in the office until 5:00pm EST and will be happy to speak with you about it. You can reach Daniel at 1.866.328.4766 or (+1.412.967.0124) extension 50028.
Harvey, we're looking forward to continuing the process of getting the uvizz Eyewear in front of a company to see if they're interested in selling it to stores.
Sincerely, Jan Jones Executive Assistant to the President
this is the email they sent me!!!

Can you email me at [email protected] if you ended up getting money for your invention please .
Thanks, K
The guy I dealt with with an extreme slickster. He used all the techniques that I know when trying to sell someone a dream. He even through in a sly remark by saying I need the "fortitude" to pursue my idea. I guess he was trying to use some sort of reverse psychology, goading me as one might do a 10 year old. He also excessively would call me by my first name which is another psychological technique used to establish familiarity and friendship. He gave himself away with that one. I spent the initial 800.00 as it was something I could afford. I was also tipped off by the guy being so blown away with my idea which self admittedly wasn't even that good.
Here's the deal folks, they get thousands of people a year to spend that initial $795 and thats how they operate. You can tell him the most nonsensical idea imaginable and they will say "O wow this could work, thats an awesome idea"...I don't look to sue and such, im just a spiritual person and a person in the health industry and let me say, when you conduct yourself and have to be pretentious day in and day out as they do, it brings on chronic illness and suffering.
