IN a recent meeting with the executive director of the Department of Science and Technology-Philippine Council for Health Research and Development, Jaime Montoya, the pioneering batch of grantees for the DoST-PCHRD Startup Research Grant program presented their engagement plans.
Montoya said: "The paradigm shift that we have to appreciate now is that we need the private sector to support national government-initiated programs. I hope that with stronger private sector initiatives, through the Startup Research Grant program, we can help these startups."
