03 Jun Enhancing Innovation through Strategic Industry-Academe Partnership
The Philippine chemical industry is abuzz with excitement as industry leaders and the Samahan sa Pilipinas ng mga Industryang Kimika (SPIK) join forces through Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), supported by the Board of Investments. This innovative partnership aims to tackle common roadblocks and strengthen connections between industry and academia, fostering a collaborative environment that drives growth and progress.
With a shared vision of advancing the chemical industry in the Philippines, SPIK and the BOI have opened doors for HEIs to work closely with industry players. This collaboration promises to bridge the gap between theory and practice, enabling students to gain hands-on experience and industry-relevant skills. In turn, industry partners benefit from access to fresh perspectives, cutting-edge research, and a pipeline of highly skilled workers.
Industry-academe linkages are flourishing, and joint research projects are yielding promising results. As these partnerships continue to grow and thrive, the Philippine chemical industry is poised to reach new heights, solidifying its place as a key player in the global market.
