CATEA hosts two public events each month, where product inventors, designers and dreamers can present their ideas and get helpful feedback from our staff of engineers, scientists, occupational therapists, and other experts. We offer this as a public service and encourage members of the general public to make presentations or simply attend the sessions. These lively events are held at the CATEA building, 490 Tenth Street Atlanta, Georgia, on the first and third Thursdays of every month at 8:30 a.m. Contact us for more information or to schedule a date.
