Science, technology, innovation and entrepreneurship: 2009, the year of creativity and innovation

---

Modern economies place increasing emphasis on adding value by means of better use of knowledge and innovation. Most analysts agree that education and training can be a determining factor in enhancing creativity, innovation performance and competitiveness – the ‘knowledge triangle’ comprising education, research and innovation. However, creativity and innovation are also linked to personal attributes, based on cultural and interpersonal skills and values. Creativity is a human characteristic that manifests itself in many contexts, from works of art, design and craft , to scientific breakthroughs and entrepreneurship. Creativity and innovation have the potential to lead to new products, services, processes, strategies and organisations that arise from new ideas and associations, irrespective of whether the domain is economic, social or artistic. As such, creativity and innovation can be stimulated through a broad, creative, skills base, as well as the development of motivation and a sense of initiative.
