Besides of

Is there such usage? Besides of + N

I made a sentence as the following:

Besides of increasing efficiency, technological advancement can solve difficulties in real life, and sometimes a technology is invented because of humans' curiosity.

Please correct me if this sentence is wrong. Thank you very much.
