The First International Inventor’s Day

2nd of February 2008, Bangkok 

Without inventor no invention – without invention no innovation – without innovation no development!


Introduction

The “International Inventor’s Day” event was established by the International Federation of Inventors’ Associations (IFIA) to raise awareness of the role of inventors in our daily lives, and to celebrate the contribution made by inventors to the development of science, technology and societies across the globe. The “International Inventor’s Day (IID)” must be organized together with an selected national similar event.

The IFIA received a proposal regarding this event from the National Research Council of Thailand (NRCT) which was accepted. Therefore the first issue of “International Inventor’s Day (IID)” was celebrated on 2nd of February 2008 in Bangkok together the Inventor’s Day in Thailand.

The celebration of inventors was realized by way of gala occasion, international invention exhibition and convention.
