Industry-Academia Collaboration

We had a surprise visit by Engr. Dr. Uchegbu Chineneye Eberechi, HOD Electrical Electronics Engineering, Abia State University (ABSU).
During the visit, he met the Nigerian Genius 2023 finalists and had a tour of our state-of-the-art facility in Aba.

We continue to extend our hands of partnership to different tertiary institutions as they are critical stakeholders in building competent engineering workforce in Nigeria.

Project Update!

TEAM FUTMINNA

Below is a pictorial update showing the progress of the farming robot that is being built by the geniuses from the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger State.

TEAM UNIUYO

From CAD design to a prototype.Here’s a pictorial update on the farming robot being designed and constructed by the UNUYO geniuses.

TEAM YABATECH

In preparation for the demo day, the team illustrated how the farming robot they designed and constructed works and the processes involved in using it.

TEAM ABU ZARIA

The team illustrated the working process of their robot giving us a tip of the iceberg of what their work looks like.The demonstration showcased the robot’s ability to perform complex tasks with precision and efficiency. It left us eager to learn more about the team’s innovative approach and the potential applications of their technology.
