What is STTP？
The Scholars Technopreneurship Training Program (STTP) is a 5-month training program for DOST Scholars of Region VI. This program is initiated by the Department of Science and Technology – Science Education Institute (DOST-SEI), in collaboration with DOST Region VI and the Leave a Nest Philippines, wherein its goal is to train young university students into becoming future technopreneurs by instilling in them the concepts and mindset required to build their own startup companies who could then solve various issues that we face in the world – especially using the researcher’s mindset that the Leave a Nest Group lives by, and through actual examples and stories that are part of the history of the company. With this, the long term goal is to be able to create more companies in the Philippines with a deep technology and research & development focus, in order to give our scientists, researchers, and engineers more opportunities to use their skills and knowledge inside the country which will contribute directly to the development of the Philippines. （Reference taken from Leave a Nest Philippines）
