It always comes to mind whether the world still needs more innovations and inventions or not!?
The answer to this question requires understanding why we invent or create a new device, tool or service?
Man has always been and still is looking for comfort in his life and finding solutions to the difficulties and challenges he faces in his environment and society. Therefore, we can always say that man will always need to develop, invent and create solutions, tools and methods to overcome those difficulties that reduce his comfort in life.
Every April 26, the world celebrates World Intellectual Property Day, and this year’s slogan is “Innovation to Improve Lives,” to emphasize that life is healthier, safer, and more comfortable thanks to innovations.
In order to continue innovations, the world seeks to develop and encourage innovators by protecting their innovations through intellectual property systems that guarantee the innovator his material and moral rights, and at the same time, guarantee the community the ability to view these innovations in order to drive the wheel of development and move from one innovation to another new and developed innovation. This is known as “the right to innovate in exchange for publication.”
Finally, to achieve the material benefit from these innovations , the world's most famous innovators provided many tips for generating more effective innovations, perhaps the most important of which are:
- Take notes: Many companies are born from random writing down of ideas.
- Long-term thinking: Short-term thinking makes you compete with a large group of competitors and vice versa.
- Team Diversity: The diversity of the innovation team highlights different aspects and dimensions.
- Rapid implementation: Many ideas and innovations die due to lack of seriousness and slow implementation.
- Collect a variety of data: The diversity and comprehensiveness of data gives you the best options when making decisions.
- Choose inspiring members for your team: The success of companies is often attributed to competent employees.
- Considered risk: The most inspired and innovative people are those who take the risk of implementing their ideas in a considered manner.
- Failed attempts produce successful projects.
- Listen to others' advice: A great innovation rarely succeeds because of just one person.
- Invest in innovation training: Develop yourself in thinking outside the box and the ability to find opportunities.
