the notable people in the invention community
that were present in the opening ceremony.
For the past two years, we have had an ex-

events and meetings. However, we came up
with remedies like online meetings and virtual
events. But now, we are back to holding phys-
ical events, allowing us to meet and greet the
inventors, the people interested, and the inves-
tors.
This event aimed to introduce the inventions
created by serious attempts, bringing them to-
gether with the investors and commercializing
them. Moreover, ISIF plans to create aware-
ness about invention and innovation by the at-
tendance of people of all ages, hold national
and international workshops, and become an
organization with the most powerful industrial
property network in Turkey.
This year, ISIF’21 hosted over 1 million visitors
from all around the world. Besides, more than
260 inventors from 20 countries participated in
this international event as contestants.
