Centers where young people can put their ideas into practice and technological products into the market.

Sattari pointed to biotechnology as a revenue-generating field and continued: "The future of the world is in this field and this field is very rich." Moreover, in the field of biotechnology, one gram of material is priced at one million dollars, and this is due to the knowledge contained in that product. So, innovations contribute to the growth and development of this field. of the National Elites Foundation also stated: "Due to national security and economic issues, we have no choice but to localize and innovate in various fields." Like the defense sector, where we have been very strong, we need to develop ecosystem innovation in other areas.

The Vice President of Science and Technology added: "Innovation is not an issue that everyone is capable of." There is tremendous manpower in the country that should be used as an axis of innovation. If education does not lead to value creation and economic growth, it means that this education system has serious problems.

No one fails in the field of startups but learns for the next steps.
