The 26th Industrial Art and Technology Exhibition & Competition (INATEX 2024), organised by UTM Innovation and Commercialisation Centre (ICC) under the Office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research & Innovation), gathers a diverse group of researchers and innovators for an exhibition and competition. It highlights the latest inventions and innovations from the university, UTM spin-off companies, industries, agencies, providing a platform to showcase their work to both the public and industry. In addition, the event will also feature the ICON Talk forum and Maverick sharing sessions, providing a platform for insightful discussions and knowledge exchange. The event also serves as a competition, where products developed by UTM researchers are assessed and awarded, giving winners the chance to represent UTM at national and international events. In 2024, INATEX will be part of the UTM Global Connect program, aimed at promoting international collaboration and innovation through exhibitions, seminars, and networking opportunities.
