It has caused individuals to step forward beyond their comfort zone and develop and nurture abilities and innovations to combat this novel virus. This innovation culture was evidenced in China, the epicentre of the pandemic, where multiple technological innovations helped to combat the Corona outbreak (1). In addition, scientists are also involved in biological innovations aiming to discover treatment modalities for the virus (2). Furthermore, these innovations are crucial for the sustainable development of the globe (3). Sri Lanka, which is a lower-middle income country (LMIC) requires facilities and equipment to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic as well as to face the post-pandemic era. Innovations and interventions were produced by the scientists, innovators, software engineers, medical professionals and others interested in the vast field of innovation. The lack of a platform for these inventors to develop their inventions to a globally accepted and commercially producible level was noted. This narrative report highlights the need for new innovations to uplift the health sector and fulfilment of this requirement.
