#CSIRConf2022 Bio-based products are becoming popular with incentives such as carbon credits and tax incentives especially the mining sector. Regulation and reliance on imports is still a challenge in SA. The STDF funded project @ICGEBCapeTown can help spur local production.
@AUDANEPAD_COE @nepadsanbio @SADC_News I want to applaud the CSIR for committing to leveraging its Intellectual Property to create new enterprises. Working with SMMEs is also critical #CSIRConf2022
@CSIR @nepadsanbio @AUDANEPAD_COE As #CSIRConf2022 starts one question that comes to mind is: 1) What is a robust SA economy and how does S&I help to achieve that? Robust means strong, health and vigorous. 2) How can the impact of science on the SA economy be measured?
