On behalf of the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), I wish to welcome everyone from all walks of life to celebrate the success of Filipino scientists at the 2019 National Science and Technology Week (NSTW).
In keeping with the
general theme “Science for the People: Enabling Technologies for Sustainable
Development,” this year’s NSTW—together with the Regional Science and
Technology Week (RSTW) celebrations—seeks to draw attention to scientific
knowledge and technological applications impacting on the lives of Filipinos
through the kind of development that can bring about positive, meaningful, and
sustainable change.
The 2019 NSTW is the DOST
flagship event, and it is expected to gather the country’s leading scientists,
researchers, educators, and stakeholders to interact with investors,
entrepreneurs, industry representatives and professionals leading to meaningful
partnerships to bridge the S&T knowledge base and the people and
organizations which it ultimately serves.
The NSTW celebration has
the noble intention of harnessing the power of innovative technological ideas
and concepts to power the Philippines toward new, boundless opportunities to
solve longstanding societal problems.
