Background Information

What is World Innovations Day? 

World Innovations Day is celebrated across the world on April 21. It started originally in Brazil, then was supported by the United Nations, and is also celebrated as Creativity and Innovations Day. At World Innovations Forum, we prefer using ingenuity over creativity because we feel ingenuity best reflects the talent to innovate.
