Inventor?

Tomorrow, wednesday, I'll participate in a TV show. A lady has invited five inventors, including me, and wants them to talk about their craft. Does the innovative work that Demotech's design initiatives ask for, make me an inventor?
If yes, then I do something wrong. By now I know what creates new ideas, what roads of development lead to quality. It could be -but should not be- a one man thing. It should be a ongoing process with spurs of creativity among a group working towards a target in a friendly fashion.
I feel the way Tom and I worked on the making of parts for the BathroomToilet-unit illustrates this. Both of us work on it from the perspective of offering it soon to people somewhere in the rural areas of Kenya. The work is about people, not about a thing. The work was innovative, it created a service, not an invention.
