Keep track of the development of innovations and

with the objective of publicizing and encouraging
the adoption of solutions and techniques that allow
for the rapid and growing use of these concepts at

Creativity and innovation can be applied to any field
of business, regardless of cultural vocation, regional
issues or any other factors. The objective of applying
creativity and innovation to business activities is to create and capture new market space, achieve higher
productivity levels and open up markets.
Intrinsic competitive factors, such as low labor costs
or specific technological progress within the field
of information technology, can only be overcome by the
intelligence of new business models, new processes,
new technologies and other factors resulting from ongoing
creativity, imagination, and innovation. This
is the route to be followed by either developed or developing
countries.
