Dear colleagues and friends,
I am writing to update you on the progress of MATRIZ Official, which branched off from MATRIZ six months ago and is now officially registered in Brussels, Belgium. Our primary goal is to lead the spread of TRIZ worldwide, and we are dedicated to achieving this through the following initiatives:
- Preserving the legacy of Mr. Genrikh Altshuller
- Sharing TRIZ tools and knowledge globally
- Improving individual creative and critical thinking skills based on TRIZ
- Providing world-class five-level certification for TRIZ practitioners
Over the last six months, we have made significant strides towards these objectives, and I am delighted to share some of our achievements with you:
- Our Certification Committee now consists of 35 accredited representatives from ten countries, including the USA, Germany, the Netherlands, Russia, Thailand, Belgium, India, China, Austria, and South Korea. Details and contact information for each representative can be found at https://www.matriz-official.net/index.php/certification/2-uncategorised/18-accredited-representatives-of-certification-committee
- To date, we have certified over 600 TRIZ practitioners across Levels 1-4. You can view the list of certified participants at https://www.matriz-official.net/index.php/certification/2-uncategorised/17-certified-triz-practitioners.
- Our TRIZ Master Certification Committee (TMCC) has received five applications for TRIZ Master defense in 2023.
- We are excited to announce that the International TRIZ Conference ITC-2023 has received over 50 abstracts. The conference is scheduled to take place from August 30 to September 2, 2023, in Graz, Austria, and is being organized by MATRIZ Official, Graz University of Technology, and Higher College for Engineering Wolfsberg. On the first day of the conference, we will be hosting a "Solve It on the Spot" session, where participants can present real-world challenges and solve them with the guidance of our expert panel. For more details about the conference, please visit https://www.matriz-official.net/index.php/events/2-uncategorised/31-itc-2023-page.
We have also launched a series of webinars by TRIZ Masters for the general public and newcomers. You can register for upcoming webinars at www.matriz-official.net and view past webinars on our YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/@matrizofficial
With your support, MATRIZ Official has accomplished much in a short amount of time. We have many exciting tasks ahead of us, and we invite you to join us as a member of the world's leading TRIZ community. MATRIZ Official offers both collective and individual membership options.
I wish you every success in applying and enjoying TRIZ!
On behalf of MATRIZ Official,
