Research Promotion and Sponsorship

In recognition of the contributions of research to the growth and development of the economy, the company engages in annual research promotion and sponsorship programme that brings researchers across Africa to the forefront, making their work more visible and beneficial to the public, who otherwise have not seen or benefited from such outputs. This became necessary as we have discovered that most of the research outputs in Africa are published in academic journals and go unnoticed by the professional communities and the public, hence the solutions they proffer and the ideas are never taken advantage of. This is massively part of why Africa is lagging behind in technological and other meaningful development, compared to other continents of the world.

Research promotion and sponsorship are essential for securing funding and resources to support research projects. Here are some steps that you can follow to promote research and attract sponsorship:

1. Research funding programme: This sponsorship is open to qualified young researchers completing their PhDs who intend to conduct cutting-edge research that will lead the transformation of Africa in all spheres of human life.
2. Research excellence award: This is a yearly award to the best research outputs conducted by members of the academic community in recognition of their hard work in the past 12 months.
