In every event and meeting, relevant to <strong>entrepreneurship<\/strong> and <strong>development<\/strong>, the word innovation, is if not the protagonist, what attracts the most <strong>interest<\/strong>. Furthermore, lately, the term innovation, tends to become synonymous with that of &#8220;<strong>startup<\/strong>&#8221; business.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Both <strong>innovation<\/strong> and <strong>startups<\/strong>\u00a0have become very <strong>&#8220;hot&#8221;<\/strong> terms in the business environment. Their use has become popular and are\u00a0spread at such extent, that use them even people who have so much to do with entrepreneurship, as much as Steve Jobs had\u00a0to do with Microsoft.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We\u00a0could analyze what is innovation for hours, how it is applied, where we find it etc, but actually\u00a0what is innovation?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What is described as <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Innovation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">innovation<\/a> in the business world, is the <strong>new way<\/strong> to do something and this in a\u00a0more <strong>effective<\/strong> and <strong>efficient<\/strong> way. However, for each one of us, the term innovation is <strong>unique<\/strong> and <strong>special<\/strong>. Something that\u00a0is innovative for someone, for someone else may not be as new or effective.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Innovation is distinguished in two parts. The first part concerns the identification, and the second part the implementation.<\/em><\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>StartUp<\/strong> enterprises are the result of the second part of innovation. The second part is the one which\u00a0is open to all interventions.

This part\u00a0makes innovation <strong>difficult<\/strong>, <strong>special<\/strong> and <strong>fascinating<\/strong> at the same time.\u00a0In order\u00a0to get to the <strong>second part<\/strong> and use all the above tools, you must pass through the first, with only instrument your\u00a0<strong>mind<\/strong> and your <strong>imagination<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the 21st century, the century of <strong>information<\/strong>, everything can be learned except <strong>imagination<\/strong>. No matter how many efforts you make in this direction they will never help someone who has no imagination, to acquire it through education.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Actually, <strong>imagination<\/strong> and <strong>creative thinking<\/strong> lead to the first part of innovation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Imagination not only helps you to see entrepreneurship as a line of history from the past to today, but it is the reason\u00a0that raises you up, to see extension of the line in the future.\u00a0In order\u00a0to see tomorrow, you should see the timeline from above, <strong>history<\/strong>, <strong>changes<\/strong>, <strong>mutations<\/strong>, <strong>process<\/strong>, <strong>needs<\/strong>, <strong>today<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Looking at all these, you will reveal innovation in the future , and you will have taken an important step to come closer\u00a0to the second part of innovation, and from there, to own your startup business.
