@winexviv @ResearchinNig Here is what @NOTAPdesk is doing. They support industry based research. @FmstNg

@winexviv Just to Mention, industry based research happens in Nigeria @ NOTAP, although not at scale. But our @ResearchinNig initiative have another model. we are convinced it will work better. Look it up here ! researchinnigeria.org/research-netwo…

Let me explain in plain English why every Nigerian industry and Government must start funding university researches. Imagine your company wants innovation. You hire 4 researchers. You pay ₦1 million per month each. That’s ₦4 million monthly ₦48 million yearly For 4 brains. Now pause. With just ₦20–30 million as a research grant, you could engage: • 20 PhDs • 50 MSc students • Multiple professors • Labs + peer review • Global validation Inside a university. More brains. More ideas. Less cost. Better results. This is why industries fund universities abroad. Tesla doesn’t do all research alone. Apple doesn’t. Shell doesn’t. Pfizer doesn’t. They pay universities to think. Universities produce: • Patents • Prototypes • Breakthroughs • Spin-off companies Industries take the IP. They scale it. They make billions. Everyone wins. So why do foreign governments fund university research? Because research = economic weapon. The US funds universities → Patents → Companies → Exports → Global dominance. China funds universities → Factories → Technology transfer → World market control. Germany funds universities → Engineering breakthroughs → Industrial supremacy. Now compare Nigeria. Our universities are idle. Lecturers are broke. Labs are empty. Students are underused which pushed the to join cults. Yet industries are crying: “innovation no dey” “foreign tech is expensive” “we can’t compete globally” How will you compete when you don’t invest in thinking? We turned universities into glorified secondary schools. No serious grants. No serious research. No serious industry collaboration. This must change. If Nigerian industries redirect even 10% of HR & R&D budgets to university research: • Universities get busy • Students become inventors • Lecturers become innovators • Industries get cheaper innovation • Nigeria gets patents • Nigeria gets relevance This is not charity. It’s smart capitalism. No serious country develops without industry-driven university research. Until Nigerian industries wake up, we will keep importing ideas and exporting our talents and future.

Awesome!

@RenjiShigaru @winexviv Nahhh no talk like that, we dey here ! na our work be this nahhh We have an M&E solution to solve the issue of abuse of project funds. The industry needs to focus on business. We take off that burden from them. We are paid fully on project success

@winexviv They are not meant to fund any university It is a waste of time The vice-chancellor will steal the money The lecturers will steal the money The SUG will steal the money This is Nigeria Funding research is a waste of time

@chukwuka_vpp @winexviv Filling patent is actually cheaper in Nigeria, and its connected to WIPO. The only challenge is the delay, but with our help it goes quite fast. Global filing is where the issue is, we advice this only when it makes sense. We support researchers in doing this. Link us up.

@winexviv And how do u protect d patent? Typical IP in d US costs $15K to prosecute (that's our average over 4 patents we have filed - 2 granted and 2 pending). $15k is NGN 30M which is more than the allocation to the lab or is your idea filing in Nigeria? U hav no idea what u r proposing.
