DBP eyes added support to local inventors

THE Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP) is looking at extending financial grants to three outstanding local inventors who recently won a national competition for the most promising solutions and technologies for critical sectors of the economy, a top official said.

DBP President and Chief Executive Officer Emmanuel Herbosa said the bank may provide additional support to the winners of the local competition with the Filipino Inventors Society (FIS) dubbed as 'The Inventor's Pitch,' to facilitate the commercialization and mass production of their products and inventions.
