Ladislao (Laszlo ) José Birò was an Argentine inventor,
who patented the first commercially successful modern ballpoint pen which
changed the world's way of writing forever.
He was born on September 29th, 1899 in Budapest, Hungary .Ladislao came
from a family of inventors. His father, a dentist, improved the instruments of
the time and created a cabinet with electric light. His mother saved his life
by inventing the incubator: Ladislao had been born premature and the doctors
thought he was dead, but his mother had the idea of putting him in a box in
front of a lamp which saved Ladislao‘s life.
Following his parents footsteps, Ladislao became a very
prolific inventor too. The first commercially successful invention of Ladislao
Birò was an automatic machine to wash clothes that worked with the energy
produced by a kitchen of homemade use, an invention that became popular in the
Thirties. At the same time he invented the automotive change for automobiles
that he sold to General Motors in Berlin, who bought it not to manufacture it,
but to avoid competition from it.

Design of the first ballpoint by Ladislao Birò.
In the thirties
,working as a journalist Ladislao became tired of fountain
pens and ink stains so he began to think about an alternative system.
It all started when Ladislao saw some children playing with
balls in the street, one of the balls crossed a puddle and left a line of water on the dry surface of the street and a solution to his problem came to his mind!
He presented the
first production of the ballpoint pen at the Budapest International Fair in
1931. Birò patented the invention in Paris in 1938. But in 1943 Ladislao emigrated with his
family to Argentina escaping from nazi persecussion and became an Argentinian citizen like all the Birò family.
In Argentina, Ladislao, his brother György
and Juan Meyne founded the company Biro Pens of Argentina in a garage, with little money and 40 employees.
They perfected the invention of the ballpoint, which went on the market with
the name of "birome" (acronym of Biro and Meyre). The invention
became very popular and since then has changed the way we write and sold billions of ballpoint pens
worldwide.
Ladislao Birò is one of the most
brilliant inventors of Argentina. He registered the patents of 30 inventions during his life,
including a washing machine, an automatic mechanical gearbox,the ballpoint, a
clinical thermograph, a device for obtaining energy from the waves of the sea
and an inviolable lock and others.
