The move reinforces the existing partnership in force, in support of the nurturing and development of ICT professionals to satisfy industry immediate needs by suited alignment, fostering joint R&D initiatives aiding in optimal leverage of skilled resources leading onto commercialisation of R&D outcomes and thereby providing for a self-sustaining ecosystem for UCSC’s research incubator.
