‘The 3^rd World Invention and Innovation Contest (WiC) 2017’ organized by Korea Invention News (KINEWS) and Asia Invention Association (AIA) held on 3 & 4^th June 2017 at the Convention Center of Chung Mu Art Hall in Seoul, South Korea. This prestigious contest is an important event among inventors worldwide, which was listed by International Federation of Inventors’ Association (IFIA), Switzerland. Mr. Jaison Jeevanandam, a higher degree by research (HDR) student from Curtin University, Malaysia, under the guidance of Dr. Stephanie Chan Yen San and Prof. Michael Danquah, proposed an idea for the contest under the title ‘Multi-compartment antimicrobial nanoformulation for food packaging’. The aim of this idea is to control microbes mediated food borne diseases in food using a novel nanoformulation. The nanoparticles are already under use in the food packing industry to reduce microbial inhibition. However, the nano coating is focused on one microbial species which allows other species to grow in food. Thus, the purpose of this invention is to incorporate different nano-antimicrobial agents in a single nanoformulation to inhibit growth of different microbes. Microbial control in food will help in prolonged life time of food substances for their long-distance transport and longtime storage. This innovation will be highly helpful in avoiding microbial growth in baby food products. In 2016, World Health Organization (WHO) reported that 420000 people died due to food borne diseases caused by several microbes and 125000 among them were children below age 5. This is due to the lower immunity of children towards the food borne disease. Moreover, Technavio’s research analyst (USA) predicts that the global organic baby food market grow steadily in the rate of 12% in terms of revenue between 2016 and 2020. These organic baby foods contains enriched nutrients which also encourages growth of microbes. Thus, the microbial growth spoils the food, illness in infants and children as well as cause a huge problem in baby food industry. The idea proposed for the contest will solve the challenges in avoiding microbial growth, thereby halts the spread of food borne disease among infants through baby food products. This innovative idea to solve food borne disease related challenge has won gold medal in the contest among 150 other innovative ideas. The project also has won ‘Special Honour of Invention’ award from Toronto International Society of Innovation & Advanced skills (TISIAS) and International Invention and Innovation Competition in Canada (iCAN-Toronto).
