Parviz Karami: "Creative and Innovation Houses" will keep skilled manpower in underserved areas

In the media meeting of the first gathering of social innovation activists in the country, Parviz Karami, The head of the center and the secretary of the soft technologies and creative industries headquarter, said, referring to the activities of 200 innovation centers and 75 innovation and creative houses in the country, most of these centers operate in less privileged areas to create the ground for providing flourishing of human resource innovations in these areas. Preventing the migration of creative and intelligent specialists from less privileged areas should be through creative and innovation houses, knowledge-based and creative companies.

Development of social innovations

Parviz Karami stated that social innovation is an effective and well-known word in the world and is included under general innovations, adding: If the country is to show the weight of knowledge-based and creative companies in the subject of good governance and the field of public innovation. It is called social innovation in some places.

The head of the center and the secretary of the soft technologies and creative industries headquarter in the Vice Presidency of Science and Technology emphasized that the issue that we are currently looking for in social and public innovations is what good governance needs. Start-up or creative companies or companies that we used to see traditionally are defined in the fields of private innovations whose benefit may not necessarily reach society.

He reminded: When it comes to social and public innovations, all the benefits will reach the members of the society. It used to be in the form of organizations, foundations and charity units, but now governments must play this role.

Referring to the ability of knowledge-based and creative companies to accelerate and increase the quality of social proceedings, Parviz Karami added: Government structures are involved in their bureaucracy, which makes public and social proceedings less. That is, if a person in a government organization wants to do a public benefit and social activity, he has more concerns than the target society. Therefore, if this work comes to the heart of a socially innovative society, its benefits will reach the whole society.

The head of the center and the secretary of the soft technologies and industrial development headquarters, stating that some good things have happened this year that can help the field of social innovation, said: the document for the national development of soft technologies was approved by the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution. The second event is the approval of the knowledge-based production boost law, in which creative units, industries, and companies became official. Previously, creative companies were defined under the Vice Presidency of Science and Tchnology, but they did not have a legal identity.

He stated that the knowledge-based production leap law is a good and progressive legal basis for the creative house, and said: For this reason, we concluded that a Nopia creative house of innovation should continue this activity in an organized, structured and institutionalized manner. A creative house of innovation will be formed in the country under the title of the creative house of innovation Nopia and will become the central hub of this issue and guide the institutions and activities and institutions that work in the field of social innovations.

The emphasis by the Supreme Leader of the revolution, on creative industries

In the field of creative industries, one of the main parts is social innovations
