Innovation Day is observed on February 16th of every year. Innovations are the process of translating an idea or invention into a good or service that creates value for which customers will pay. It is an action of inventing a new method, product, idea, and so on. Innovation is considered to be one of the overused terms of this generation. On the day, young innovators and business leaders come together to celebrate the change in their particular industry and seek solutions for tomorrow’s challenges. In an era of increasing complexity and competition, scientists must have a platform to work face-to-face and look beyond to solve problems. So this day creates an opportunity for scientists to meet their peer groups and discuss. This term is not always used professionally; even when one has a problem and thinks of a solution, he undergoes the process of inventing.
Innovation should not be carried out only by engineers. Every one might have new ideas every day.” -Dr.Li Walin
