Congolese inventions and innovations ready for the market
In his speech at the opening ceremony of the first conclave of Congolese scientific genius, the President of the Republic, Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi, stressed the need to support and promote Congolese inventions and innovations. He thus instructed the government to budget for these advances in next year’s finance law.
President Tshisekedi stressed the economic importance of endogenous research products, which are ready to enter the market. He therefore asked the relevant sector ministries to take measures to support and finance these inventions and innovations. The Minister of Scientific Research and Technological Innovation, Gilbert Kabanda, has also been tasked with putting in place a national policy aimed at supervising Congolese researchers, inventors and other scientists.
This decision aims to promote inventions and innovations “Made in Congo” and to encourage the development of the country. The conclave of Congolese scientific genius, which is currently being held, highlights Congolese researchers and inventors and makes it possible to publicize their achievements. This is a unique opportunity to showcase Congolese creativity and talent in the field of science and technology.
By budgeting for Congolese inventions and innovations, the government demonstrates its commitment to supporting scientific research and fostering a more dynamic and competitive national economy. This initiative will also stimulate local entrepreneurship by providing marketing opportunities for Congolese inventions and innovations.
It is essential to recognize and promote the talents and achievements of Congolese scientists. By investing in local research and development, Congo can position itself as a key player in the field of innovation in Africa and contribute to solving the challenges facing the continent.
In conclusion, President Tshisekedi’s instruction to budget Congolese inventions and innovations is an important step to support scientific research and encourage local entrepreneurship. This financial support will make it possible to market innovative “Made in Congo” products and promote the country’s economic development
