“During our previous participation, we exhibited research products and innovation to stakeholders, SMEs and the general public. We won several awards and also secured engagements with stakeholders and technology end-users which are indications that NASENI had created a niche for itself in this important event,” he said.
Furthermore, he noted that NASENI is the only purposely built Agency of the Federal Government with the mandate to carry out research and development(R&D), production, reverse engineering and actual manufacturing in the areas of capital goods, machines, spares and equipment, to make the economy of the country possess home-grown capacities for genuine industrialization and sustainable development.
“Under the indefatigable leadership of Mr. Khalil Suleiman Halilu as EVC/CEO in the last one year, you will agree with me that the Mandate of NASENI to fuel innovation for Nigeria’s industrialization has further received enormous impetus. NASENI has been transformed for better service delivery, and more focus on accelerated technology transfers and domestication of technologies has taken the centre stage in our operations, leading to the achievements of more products and technologies to be handed over to SMEs and other end-users,” he added.
This year’s theme, “Mobility: Options for Transportation, Trade Finance and Transportation”, is playing host to more than 500 exhibitors showcasing more than 10,000 products, solutions and services to more than 100,000 participants and visitors.
