The INOTEK Foundation, a not-for-profit organization based in Jakarta, Indonesia. It was founded in 2008 by Indonesians Sandiaga Salahudin Uno and Arief Surowidjojo. Inotek facilitates the development and dissemination of innovative technologies through invention-based enterprises.
Aims[edit]
Inotek aims to accelerate the growth of non-IT-technology-based small and medium enterprises that deliver technology and business solutions to transform social and environmental problems and create sustainable economic growth in Indonesia. Supported by The Lemelson Foundation, Inotek identifies innovative individuals and companies and provides these entrepreneurs with mentoring services to hone their business strategy, develop management capacity and connect them to potential business partners.
Supported innovators[edit]
