New ideas are born everyday!

Ideas are pillars of creations. Ideas are intangible, yet could be stolen or, in some cases, the original creators do not receive enough credit. Original idea creators often are barely recognised or credited for their work. For instance, Alexander Graham Bell is credited with patenting the first practical telephone. Meanwhile, Antonio Meucci created the first voice-communication device in 1871.

InvArch Network is a project built on substrate blockchain framework on Polkadot. Tinkernet parachain is the canary network of InvArch.

InvArch is taking the lead in developing a new framework or architecture for a universal IP-management protocol. It aims to bridge the gap between the generation of ideas and their execution, and offers easy access to multi-party ownership, collaboration, IP monetization and DAO Staking

This article, will cover the upcoming event called "It’s Grow Time" and the VARCH token.
