UpBrella
This is a new revolutionary umbrella that folds up when closing rather than down to prevent water from getting all over your clothes, hands, and the floor.
Idea Description
Have you ever run inside to a meeting or class and drenched yourself after closing the very thing that was supposed to keep you dry? Where do you put your wet umbrella after you close it? Do you put it on the floor? You can't put it in your bag because everything would get wet. No one carries the little bag around with them, and there are not a lot of umbrella stands in public places to keep your umbrella safe for you. So this UpBrella would actually fold upwards trapping the water inside while the dryest part of the umbrella (underneath) is what you touch. Instead of sliding up it would slide down the shaft and an attached cap would ensure no water would leak out of the top.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
I would use the money for market research, manufacturing, production and a website to market the UpBrella.

Q1: Is there anyone that has seen a similar product out there?

I like your idea; I want to improve your odds of getting funding I will vote for your idea if you will vote for mine. My idea is for a web site that raises money for inventors and entrepreneurs called New Idea website Check out my idea blob submission and visit New Idea Website and see what I can do for you. http://www.ideablob.com/ideas/4060-NEW-IDEA-WEBSITE The need for jobs is one of the biggest problems that a democratic government faces because creating jobs is an unwanted byproduct of business and industry. The reason I say its unwanted is the more jobs a business creates the more its expenses are and the smaller it’s bottom-line. If business and industry have their way they would run their companies with no jobs at all no management or labor. To deal with this dilemma I pr…moreopose a federal venture capital carrot fund that literally pays entrepreneurs to create jobs. The investment bank would be expected invest in seed level startup projects like yours and to lose money at a specified dollar per jobs ratio for example during hard times that figure may be as high as $20,000 per job and good times the figure may be as low as five dollars per job, by controlling this ratio the fed could roughly control unemployment. The bank will be expected to fund novel products and services and stay away from things like restaurants that will simply draw jobs from other restaurants or moving factories from one part of the country to another. If you like this idea vote for it and send the congressional letter from the website. Sincerely Frank Scruggs
