The organization of innovation competitions began in 2O12 involving all faculties and branch campuses to screen for participation in innovation competitions at the university level. In the previous year, the organization of innovation competitions at the UiTM Johor Branch level was in compliance with the needs of RIBU. However, starting in 2014, the Innovation Unit, BPJI & A UiTM Johor Branch has started to organize the Johor innovation competition, International Invention, Innovation & Design (IIID) at the international level and located at Dewan Sri Temenggong (DST), UiTM Johor Branch Segamat Campus. In 2015, IIID UiTM Johor Branch was jointly organized with UiTM Johor Branch Pasir Gudang Campus and located in Johor Bahru. The response received at IIID 2015 was very encouraging given the location of the organization and the promotion was carried out so well. In 2017, once again UiTM Johor managed to organize with great fanfare. History has been made at UiTM Johor Branch as it has successfully made a name for itself as the first organizer of the digital IIID competition in 2018, where the name of the competition has been changed to Digital IIID (DIIID) Johor 2018. The competition has continued in digital form in 2019, 2020 and 2021 for 2nd DIIID 2019, 3rd DIIID 2020 and 4th DIIID 2021, respectively. The overwhelming response from the participants boosts the confidence to the committee members of this competition to further organize this competition in 2022 fully digitally for the 5th DIIID 2022.
