Personalities from the technopreneurship industry imparted knowledge and experiences during the third installment of the Innovation and Technology Support Office (ITSO) bootcamp held online last March 8.

Mr. Chino Atilano, Engr. Ludwig Federigan, and Ms. Erlind Genivieve Blasurca- Duran were the main discussants for the said session.

Atilano, Chief Executive Officer of TimeFree Innovations, Inc., talked about Opportunity and Paint-point Recognition, while Federigan, Executive Director at Young Environmental Forum and a Contributing Columnist for The Manila Times, discussed Addressing Sustainability Opportunities for Environmental Action.

Blasurca-Duran, New Business Development and Regulatory Affairs Manager of Pascual Consumer Healthcare Corporation, meanwhile, delivered a short talk under the topic Philippine Health and Wellness: Where we are and where do we go?

The said session aimed to train its participants in spotting threats or opportunities and translating them to business needs.

“Time to sit down and identify opportunities that come our way as we start to build our business. Threats and sustainability challenges may appear along the way but no worries, we would also be discussing how to deal with the so-called valley of death,” ITSO wrote on their social media, announcing the meeting.

The event is part of a series of training sessions on technopreneurship conducted by the University, ITSO and Adamson University Neo Science and Technology Incubation Center (AdUNEST), in coordination with the DOST- Philippine Council for Industry, Energy and Emerging Technology Research and Development (PCIEERD).
