What is the relationship between creativity, innovation, and invention? How does creativity or invention lead to the creation of jobs and opportunities in startups?It’s easy to perceive that technology and a product is what changes the economy, for example:* The Printing Press replaced copiers* Machines replaced farmers* Assembly lines replaced tradespeople* Robotics replaced builders* The Internet replaced knowledge workers* The Content Management System replaced website designers* AI is replacing a lot of technical skill worksWhat this neglects is that it isn’t the invention that changes anything, it’s the innovation and adoption in the market. Fail that in favor of your being focused on invention a solution, and you will fail. We know this, yet many disregard it.With the gear of an Invention alone, you will not move efficiently.Creativity and Innovation working upon an invention is what turns a gear into a machine, or rather, part of a machine... Your #startup has to be a machine, say, a car... and I want you to consider how what really matters most, is not the creativity, innovation, or solution you invented, but the road you're on - Are you on the right road? Do you know how to get where you need to go? How are you kept aware of traffic jams, road closures, and detours?
