Yaeger Innovative Products Corp.


Yaeger Innovative Products Corporation (Y. I. P. Corp.) is a Miami, Florida based privately held firm that began in 1986 with a creative spark. Ivan Yaeger founded the company as a University of Miami undergraduate student following the granting of his first United States patent. The business plan for this company, established to manufacture and market his inventions, was written as a management course research project. Within four years Y. I. P. Corp. became a multimillion dollar enterprise, manufacturing products for universities, school districts and Blockbuster Video stores. Since that time, the company has evolved into a diversified product development, consulting and property management firm. We have been honored with numerous awards, recognized by the U. S. Patent and Trademark Office and profiled in articles in local and national publications.

Project Development & Manufacturing

Our first line of patented products -- the Yaeger Prosthetic Arm, DeskMaster portable clamp on school desk bookstand and CassetteLok video cassette childproofing lock -- demonstrated the diversity of our engineering capabilities. Most new companies begin with a single type of product in one industry. We began by simultaneously launched three products in three different industries. This bold entrepreneurial spirit has led to continuous development of new technologies invented in house or by outside clients. We have developed over 100 consumer, medical, industrial and educational products. Our products are sold worldwide to major retailers, institutions, governmental agencies and the general public. In addition to being a sole-source manufacturer, we also license technology to other companies. We undertake every stage of product development including engineering, prototyping, intellectual property application filing, manufacturing, packaging, marketing, distribution and sales.
