On 30 March 2023, a Workshop on the Innovation Voucher Scheme was conducted to support the Ministry of Education, Science, Technology, and Innovation in the finalization of the Scheme. The event was a continuation of a focus group held on March 17th and was designed for a broader audience, including representatives from governmental and non-governmental organizations, higher education institutions, institutes, and the private sector as stakeholders and potential beneficiaries of the Innovation Voucher Scheme.

The workshop delved into the details of the Innovation Voucher Scheme, including its implementation, impact monitoring, and potential benefits. Inputs received from participants will be essential in finalizing the Scheme and accompanying documentation and implementation procedures.

The Innovation Voucher Scheme is expected to boost the innovation potential of eligible entities and foster collaboration between knowledge providers, especially universities and institutes, and the private sector.
