Sattari: We are pursuing the expansion of knowledge-based export markets; We have set up the Iranian Innovation House in Kenya for this purpose and we are developing this model in other countries.
The Vice President of Science and Technology visited the innovation centers of the Amir Kabir University of Technology.
The Vice President of Science and Technology visited Amir Kabir University of Technology Innovation Centers such as Polymer and Paint Faculty Innovation Center, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering Innovation Center, Aerospace Engineering Innovation Center, Energy Innovation Center, and Amir Kabir University of Technology Research and Technology Fund.
Vice President of Science and Technology, Sorena Sattari, while visiting the innovation centers of Amir Kabir University of Technology, said: "Innovation centers are the birthplace of knowledge-based companies and their speed and acceleration in development depends on their efforts."
Sattari continued: "Every time I visit these centers, I see new systems, companies, and products." This new movement started in universities is favorable in creating innovation centers and knowledge-based companies that have significant sales, and universities can provide part of their income in this way.
According to the Vice President of Science and Technology, this will lead to the creation of this culture among professors and students. Creating a general culture of domestic development, the university's proximity to the community, and the impact of this institution in the community are some of the benefits of this event.
Referring to his visit to Kenya, the Vice President of Science and Technology said: "We are pursuing the development of export markets for knowledge-based companies in cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs." A successful example was in Kenya. We turned the former State Department building, which was in danger of being demolished, into a permanent display of knowledge-based products.
Sattari continued: "This center is a space to provide export services to the knowledge base to develop its market in this country against economic competitors and the development of technological interactions between the two countries." I have proposed the creation of these innovation houses in other countries with Dr. Zarif, which should be considered in the form of technology diplomacy in the export target countries. During this trip, 40 Iranian companies had joint meetings with more than 150 Kenyan companies to develop the export of products.
