TRIZ Master Isak Bukhman visited UL NSP FOTONIKA-LV, held seminar on Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) and Technology for Innovation. Work sessions were made to analyze several innovations and to discuss collaboration plan for Horizon Europe Teaming Stage 2 project proposal.
TRIZ is a science for new system creation and for existing systems development and related problems solving. TRIZ helps to create the best possible solutions for even the most critical problems.
