InnoUvators is an ever-expanding collection of the brightest minds who have 
graduated from the INNO-vation Program. They are the creators of "something new 
from nothing," forming and implementing original ideas without being bound by 
any preconceptions. InnoUvators has begun in Japan, and efforts have been made 
to expand it overseas to further spread the dissemination of these wondrous 
ideas. Their technologies are shown on both the website and the YouTube channel 
below. 

The INNO-vation Program, initiated by MIC, is a yearly opportunity for 
innovative minds of all backgrounds and ages to submit the ideas they wish to 
make a reality. The program has been accepting applications internationally. 
The program helps promote innovation across the entire world -- paving the way 
for a brighter future. KADOKAWA ASCII is proud to exhibit these technologies 
for audiences around the world in the form of InnoUvators.

With a brand-new website launched in 2021, each "InnoUvator" is showcased with 
interviews, videos, technology abstracts, biographies, and more. From the weird 
to the wonderful, some of the innovative technologies include a household 
carbon emission-capturing machine, AI to distinguish the sex of new-born 
chicks, new utilization of the fluidized bed phenomenon, a brand-new and unique 
musical instrument, and much more.
