TUPV SANYOG NIR Technology Convention 2026 Honors the "Tech Adoptor of the Year"

​A vital part of our mission at TUPV is ensuring that the incredible innovations developed within our laboratories find a purpose in the real world. That bridge from research to industry is built by forward-thinking partners, and it is with great pleasure that we recognize our Tech Adoptor of the Year: Ms. Inesitas L. Palermo of BERPA TECH DEVT. CORP.

​Ms. Palermo's commitment to advancing local industry is demonstrated through her role as the licensed adoptor of two powerful TUPV-developed technologies:

1. ​The Multicrop Pulverizer Device
2. ​The Automated Pelletizer Machine

​By taking these university technologies and commercializing them, she is not only supporting local invention but also providing innovative solutions to the market.

This partnership perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the Technology Convention: transforming ideas into impactful reality.

​Let us all give a warm and massive congratulation to Ms. Inesitas L Palermo for her pioneering spirit and for setting an inspiring example of effective university-industry collaboration! Your work is a testament to the power of TUPV innovation at scale.

​We look forward to witnessing the continued success of these adopted technologies in your capable hands!
