He noted that in order to effectively play their part, the youths must be creative in their thinking and take advantage of the opportunities in technology to power innovation in their businesses.
Defining innovation, Tricia Biz noted that innovation doesn’t necessarily mean inventing something new or that has never been done before, but simply about improvement. ‘It is improving your current business to achieve your goals & objectives, grow your income, reach more people and impact more people.’
On his part, Amusan noted that with digitalization and globalization, the economic impact of technology and innovation is compelling and huge for the youths and entrepreneurs.
