[Physical Session] MRANTI Supercharger Roadshow: Universiti Sains Malaysia

What is it about?

The Supercharger Roadshow is a one day programme designed to bring together researchers, university spin-off companies and invited industry partners to interact and engage to improve the commercialisation journey.

The event allows university spin-off companies, researchers, corporations, and government agencies to learn, identify issues and challenges, and identify opportunities that can push forward the innovation/ inventions to the next level.

The roadshow aims to provide an exposure and platform to share the various opportunities from MRANTI and industry partners with like minded individuals in R&D and C&I community.
