Improvements in or relating to roller banners
The patent evidences an outcome of English’s Multiple Perspective Problem Framing approach to address unsolved challenges and generate new intellectual property in the exhibition industry. The industry has attempted to develop linking roller banners without success. This invention is the first ever to enable multiple banners to be seamlessly linked in-line to create one continuous uninterrupted graphic display.
The commercial potential has been realised through the growth of a business (Eve Products Ltd), which manufactures and markets exhibition products founded on this Intellectual Property. As a result of English’s research, Eve Products has created ten jobs and increased turnover in excess of £1m.
