Holding Innovation Café, knowledge workshop as part of Innovation Month
The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has held a series of events at its Head Office as part of celebrations of the UAE Innovation Month launched this year under the theme (Innovation Starts with You) from 22 to 28 February. It is part of a national initiative in support of the UAE’s efforts focused on realising UAE Vision 2021 and UAE Centennial 2071.
Mohammed Al Ali, Head of Innovation Month Team at RTA said, “Events included the Creation Café; a café and library provided as a means of breaking the routine and providing wider room for thinking and reading. It aims at motivating employees to develop the culture of reading, considering it a key pillar of innovation. Several workshops would be held focusing on innovation art and envisioning the future; which would enrich the knowledge in this field. The Innovation Café also included a workshop as well as mental and creative games.
“Events included a presentation from the Ministry of Economy spotlighting the concept of intellectual property and patents to furnish creative intellects about protecting their innovative ideas and products from any intellectual infringements. A workshop will be held to explain innovation in Project Management for serving the national economy and raising its image in the business sector.
RTA is keen on introducing quality events that directly contribute to realising UAE Vision 2021 and UAE Centennial 2071. Suh events will render innovation a corporate culture and diffuse it among employees.
