A multi-institutional program advancing technology transfer, business incubation, and knowledge sharing across Caraga’s AANR sector.
The 1st Mindanao-Wide Technology Transfer Conference gathered innovators and partners across Mindanao for plenary talks, a ceremonial signing, poster and pitching competitions, and booth exhibits. It showcased the power of collaboration and creativity in advancing technology transfer.
Thank you, everyone, for making this milestone possible!
The two-day training aimed to enhance the region’s capacity to develop high-quality, fundable project proposals aligned with DOST-PCAARRD’s priorities and the program’s 6Ps framework.
The review aimed to assess the overall progress of the RAISE Program from June to October 2025 and ensure alignment of remaining deliverables.
RAISE Project Leaders, staff, and TARA ATBI incubatees proudly represented the Caraga Region at the RAISE Summit 2025, held last October 13–16 at Hotel Casiana, Tagaytay City.
We aim to mirror the functions and initiatives of the DOST Philippine Council for Agriculture, Aquatic and Natural Resources Research and Development (PCAARRD) Innovation and Technology Center (DPITC) in the region by providing assistance to the regional consortia on intellectual property management and transfer of technologies of selected consortia member institutions (CMIs).
Through the RAISE Program, regional capacity building and mentorship, IP and technology business development and management, strategic partnership and collaboration, and enhanced knowledge will be provided to hasten the commercialization and development of Science and Technology (S&T) based Agri-Aqua enterprise, as well as to maximize the economic potential of S&T innovation in the region.
The logo for Regional Agri-Aqua Innovation System Enhancement (RAISE) features the following:
The outline of a lightbulb formed by plant saplings, representing growth and vitality in the agricultural sector.
Within the contours of the lightbulb, the Caraga map outline is ingeniously integrated as a filament/flame, symbolizing the region itself. The flame transitions in a gradient from green and gold to orange, reflecting the region's well-known natural resources such as silver and gold ores.
Emphasizing the interconnectedness of agriculture and aquaculture, a subtle fish silhouette is strategically placed within the negative space of the lightbulb.
The text "RAISE" and “CARAGA” are presented in a sans serif typeface (Poppins), accompanied by a dynamic blue arrow waving to the right and pointing upward, symbolizing progress and forward movement.
This design encapsulates RAISE's commitment to advancing agricultural innovation and sustainability, rooted in the dynamic landscape of the Caraga region.
