Some are inventors and other are entrepreneurs, Thomas Edison an inventor of the light bulb and Sir Richard Branson the inventor of budget airlines. Both poineers, business men  have lived in different time spans, each inventor what ever his invention was: surly created other business and other jobs, making the economy around them grow. Virgin blue the leading budget airlines in Australia and expanding into south Asia, created jobs and new business opportunities like on-board entertainment services, food and catering for airlines, dynamic painting service companies to paint such new designs on budget airlines planes. How many jobs you may guess have been provided from such a simple idea as budget airlines! Thomas Edison has contributed to the founding of flikr.com and captured many world instances, all because he contributed to the invention of photography. As you can figure out from the above that inventions come hand in hand with new business venture and create more and more opportunities we could never imagine. So now back to reality and to the dry, politacally infested Kuwait where nothing right seems to be done. So do we have a place in Kuwait that respects invention and inventors?is there a place where we can get some sort funding to fund such new ideas? well not realy! Back to the states, most prominent universities have research facilities and labs and are funded by the government or by selling exclusive rights of many inventions. So after a couple of years the university acquires large number of exclusive rights on inventions that different entrepreneurs may come and explore. Such entrepreneurs come from different backgrounds  and each one of them may use the technology invented by the university in many different ways creating multiple business opportunities. Thats only a small example how inventors may help an economy, i know we have many in Kuwait that even have invented many different products and service. Is’nt it obvious that we need such an organization in this country!Back to the title of the post, we will always be consumers, spending thorw out life.

These paint jobs need complex painting procedures that have been created to support such creative idea’s as the budget airline concept.
