Abstract: The paper analyzes similarities and differences of conceptions between innovation and creation. The writers think that,there are some differences between innovation and creation,i.e.,the extension of the conception of innovation is smaller than that of creation, although they are of the same novelty.Thus, people shouldnt identify innovation with creation, and then, use the conception of innovation to replace it of creation entirely in spite of their original meaning.

Key words: creation, innovation, similarities and differences
