Abstract
Innovation is mostly associated with young people being open to new things and enthusiastic to try out something different. Even though an innovation might not be advantageous , most young persons are prepared to spend time to find out, and they are not disappointed if it does not work out as expected. This experience is considered as learning about different options and getting inspired, thus the innovation is rather an exploration tool to spark creativity.
