The annual “IUKL Innovation & Invention Competition” (IUIIC) was held at the all new IUKL Academic Block 11 on 20 December, 2017. The event was officiated by the Vice-Chancellor of IUKL, Prof. Dr. Roslan Zainal Abidin. IUIIC remains a very popular platform for IUKL students and academics to showcase their inventions and innovations and 2017 was no exception as participating teams eagerly showcased their prototypes and innovations to a packed crowd. The event was also very meaningful as it affirmed IUKL’s commitment towards solving real-world problems through solutions that are sustainable, and environmentally friendly. This year’s theme, “Innovating for Sustainability” was all about innovations that can improve business processes, increase efficiencies, reduce waste and deliver better cost savings.
IUIIC 2017 also saw the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on research collaboration and commercialisation between IUKL and BioGenes Technologies Sdn. Bhd. IUIIC 2017 also saw the introduction of a new parallel pitching session in the competition format whereby each participating team was invited to present their ideas or product to a panel of invited industry experts. Points scored would then contribute to the overall marks of each team’s product /innovation entry. A total of 38 teams participated in IUIIC 2017. Here are the IUIIC 2017 winning teams:
