Received the results of our InnoHub grant submitted from the recent cycle today - grant application is ACCEPTED! Alhamdulillah, this means that the Virtual Training for PWD can be carried out pronto. Sincerest thanks to Dr. Nor Wahiza and team for including me in the team - I humbly look forward to work forward together on this project.
This means that the basic training kit which has been copyrighted will be pushed to the next level - commercialization. However, may steps will have to be carried out prior to that, which includes carrying out the market validation. Next meeting which will discuss the next steps will be held when everyone comes back post-Chinese New Year holiday with the rest of the team members from Institut Pengajian Sains Sosial (IPSAS), where I am also an associate researcher there. The grant is expected to last until end of 2017. Since the total of the grant in RM is quite modest, so we might have to further apply the UPM's Product Promotion grant within the next year to see that the project carries through. Can't wait to get started on this benefit. May it benefit those in need. Link to Geran Dana Promosi Produk UPM can be found here.
