The purpose of TechTalent is to bridge the gap between research
findings, innovation, and commercialization. TechTalent will provide
would-be innovators with training, coaching, and networking to bring
their ideas, prototypes, and technologies to markets, thereby opening up
new opportunities for entrepreneurship and employment for Tanzanian
youth.
The
launch program will include an opening of the TechTalent space which
has been designed to harness the talent and energy of youth in
agriculture to develop solutions to the challenges of smallholder
farmers.
During the event, there will also be an Innovation Fair where young people, students, and SUA researchers will be encouraged to exhibit their products and prototypes.
The launch will take place on the SUA Main Campus at iAGRI on July 22, 2016 More details, Visit: http://iagri.org/innovation-portfolio/techtalent-initiative/
