The seminar convened 30 participants from the Bachelor of Science in Agribusiness and Bachelor of Science in Food Technology programs. The training is strategically designed to equip these future industry leaders with the critical knowledge to bridge the gap between academic innovation and market-ready, commercially viable products.

The two-day agenda featured expert-led sessions designed to build a comprehensive skillset. Prof. Bai Puti Manslao initiated the training with an "Introduction to Agribusiness," while Prof. Ronald Pascual covered the fundamentals of "Market and Feasibility Studies." The program culminated in sessions on "Technology Commercialization" led by Prof. Jeanette Madas and Prof. Baina Saway.

This specialized training provides the foundational knowledge for participants to navigate the complex landscape of technology transfer and business development, cultivating a new cohort of innovators capable of launching and protecting sustainable enterprises.

Further, as part of this comprehensive initiative, a follow-up technology promotion seminar is scheduled to be conducted on November 17-18, 2025.

This initiative reinforces CFCST's commitment to building a robust ecosystem for innovation, ensuring that academic research translates into tangible economic impact and regional development.
