To
sum up just a part of the results achieved by the versatile work of
many inventors under the auspices of the Association of Inventors
of Yugoslavia, we could say that a powerful organization has been
formed, and that the outstanding inventors inside it are continuing
the tradition of their predecessors and ancestors Nikola Tesla and
Mihailo Pupin, as well as numerous inventors who have started the
inventors' movement in this country, calling themselves "The brain
trust". Back in 1938, with the idea of promoting creativity and helping
their nation, these inventors invited all the educated and creative
people of their country to help in the development of industry of
their time.
At present the message of these far-sighted people is still alive
- all the creative potentials of this country should be included in
the revival and upgrading of production and in creating conditions
for a faster development of industry, which should lead to a far better
standard of living of our people. We are sure that our inventors will
prove to be up to this task, as they have been so far.
