About this Event
This session introduces the Industry-City-University-Entrepreneur (ICUE ) framework, a model championed by Bayanihan Lab Network (BLN) and Edu-Connect Southeast Asia Association in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, through partnerships with institutions such as the University of the Philippines. Unlike traditional top-down approaches, ICUE emphasizes an integrated ecosystem where academic research (University) fuels business innovation (Industry/Entrepreneurship), all while being enabled by localized government policy (City/Executive).
The session consists of two parts. The first part will feature a plenary speech that introduces the ICUE model and how it brings these different sectors together. This will be followed by a multi-sectoral panel discussion aimed at identifying the current gaps and friction points in the Philippine landscape. Together, these segments aim to provide SSX participants with a clear understanding of the ICUE model and how to make collaborations work for a sustainable future.
