What he said
Dr Chukwu emphasized the benefits of the partnership saying,
“Without beneficial partnerships, the mandates of NBTI which include commercialization of research, training, and development, food security will not be achieved.
“This partnership will strengthen institutions and encourage entrepreneurs to project their research works which will result in products and services.
“Findings can only translate to economic development if they are commercialized.”
Arc. Bob Achanya, the President of NBTTF, explained that the purpose of their visit was to enhance the bilateral relations between the two countries.
He noted that the visit was in preparation for the upcoming Nigeria-Bangladesh Cottage, Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (CMSMEs) event scheduled for December.
Achanya emphasized that this exposition provided an opportunity for NBTI incubates to exhibit Nigerian-made services and products.
