Description

David Klein, inventor of Jelly Belly Jelly Beans will be the speaker.

Come here the story of how Jelly Belly jelly beans came into existence, with inventor David Klein. It was 1976 when inspiration struck David, leading him to an audacious idea: to invent gourmet jelly beans unlike any the world had tasted. With just $800 and an unwavering vision, this self-made candy inventor set out to transform a simple confection into an iconic American treat. It’s a  remarkable tale of innovation, entrepreneurship, and how he ultimately “lost his beans” but, in the end, kept his soul.

Mr. Klein will speak interactively with the North Inventors Group.
