About IRN
Hello all visitors,
For 11 years the Innovators Resource Network has been supporting innovators, inventors and entrepreneurs from Hampden, Hampshire, Berkshire and Franklin Counties and northern Connecticut who have ideas for a product - and who want to learn how to move its development through to the marketplace. The Innovators' Resource Network (IRN) has public meetings the first Wednesday of October, December, February, April, June and August.
For the benefit of new members, or those who have never attended a closed meeting, I would like to explain a few things.
IRN is supported by membership. This membership is different and separate from being part of the group on Meetup. On alternating months, IRN has closed door meetings where only those who have paid the membership fee, have attended a previous public meeting, and have signed a nondisclosure form can attend.
Members’ only meetings provide the opportunity to seek advice or comments on some aspect of the development of a member’s product in a non-public forum.
Those attending a closed meeting can freely discuss their progress, their idea, and their stumbling blocks, without the fear of that information being released to the public.
Members should inform organizers ahead of time if they plan on speaking at a closed meeting, so that time slots can be arranged appropriately.
With the change in leadership of IRN, several people can be contacted if you have questions, or are planning on speaking or presenting on either the private or public meetings. Contact information is listed on the "Contact Us" page.

Contact one of the group's organizers if you have a question.
