SYNOPSIS

Engineers trained with systematic thinking are best equipped for creativity and innovation.
Innovation is about improvisation, simplicity and practicality grounded in reality. These are what engineers are trained for.
Innovation is not about Blue-Sky Thinking or Out-Of-The-Box thinking.  It is about Inside-the-Box systematic thinking, exactly what engineers are trained on.

In this light-hearted and entertaining talk illustrated by real innovation stories, the speaker Dr.YKK will shatter the long-standing myths about creativity and innovation.

Dr. YKK will demonstrate how the mathematical symbols of --, + , / , X and = hold the keys to technological breakthroughs and innovation.
This talk will weaponise engineers to use their systematic thinking to excel in problem-solving, solution-seeking and innovation.

Can you afford to miss this revolutionary talk?.
