Investors & Inventors

Investment Approach

The primary products of Gloyer-Taylor Laboratories LLC are its Laboratories.  The fundamental objective of the company is to create subsidiary business units, called Laboratories, and use them to develop products and mature technologies around a core competency.  These products and technologies are then used to expand the Laboratory into a self sustaining business, which is ultimately spun-off or sold.  To support this business model, Gloyer-Taylor Laboratories LLC allows investments to be made into a specific Laboratory.  These directed investments are focused towards the development of the specific Laboratory products, avoiding the typical investment dilution that comes from general investments.  This approach maximizes the investment effectiveness.  Additionally, the focused investment approach provides the Investor with a built-in exit strategy.  When a Laboratory becomes self sustaining and is spun-off or sold, the investments in the specific Laboratory will entitle the Investor shares of the proceeds from the sale, or shares of ownership in the new stand-alone company.

Inventor Relations

Gloyer-Taylor Laboratories is actively seeking partnerships with Inventors and Technologists who are interested in a win-win approach to getting their promising technologies to market.  Countless stories abound about Inventors who either sold or licensed their technology for pennies, while others made fortunes using the technology.  Even worse are the stories of the Inventors who lost everything when someone stole their ideas.  In either case, the Inventors fell into the common trap of trying to sell something without a proven value.

Gloyer-Taylor Laboratories has developed an approach to avoid this trap and to maximize the profits.  After identifying a promising technology, Gloyer-Taylor will work with the Inventor to protect the technology and incubate it within an internal Laboratory.  During this incubation, Gloyer-Taylor will work with the Inventor to apply the technology to meet a market need (commercial or government) and seek the funding necessary to mature the technology.  These activities are focused on getting the invention over the development hump, which is actually more like a wall.  Once the Laboratory has developed sufficient value, it will be spun-off or sold, thereby providing the Inventor with a financial reward.

The bottom line is that it is much easier, profitable, and less risky to sell a company (Laboratory) than it is to sell or license an unproven technology or invention.  Gloyer-Taylor Laboratories approach offers a win-win opportunity to Inventors while minimizing risk.
