What you need to know:

  • Innovation has played a key role in the fight against Covid-19.
  • The innovators were from across industries against a common enemy. 

Yesterday was Creativity and Innovation Day, and what a great moment to look back and celebrate the revolutionary impact of the Covid-19 innovations. While many hid indoors, some were out burning the midnight oil for solutions to the adverse effects of the pandemic.

Innovation has played a key role in the fight against Covid-19 and this culture of innovation should be cultivated to help to fight the imminent dangers the world is to face, such as climate change. The innovators were not only from the health sector but across industries against a common enemy.
