00:50to the global market needs to be strengthened.
00:56It means not only the national, but also the global market.
01:00To do this, we made an integration of 12 support services
01:06of the DOST, including legal service, market intelligence, and others.
01:11This is to have coordination between technology producers
01:14or innovators and investors
01:17that it is possible to advance here.
01:19Through this, there will be an opportunity for collaboration,
01:23such as leveling up a product.
01:25Here, we will see that there is a lot of potential
01:28for our Filipinos, our countrymen,
01:31to have spin-off and start-up companies through this.
01:35In addition to this, the Elevate Philippines program will be launched by DOST.
01:40This includes 8 major research and development projects
01:43that need to be strengthened in the country,
01:45including artificial intelligence.
01:47We want to help different universities
01:51to have computing power
01:54so that the use of artificial intelligence applications
01:58can be more and faster.
02:01We will use different sectors,
02:04such as agriculture, health, and other mentioned,
02:08including manufacturing, to use artificial intelligence.
02:12The program also includes improving the technology used in manufacturing,
02:17smart agriculture, smart technologies,
02:19and circular economy.
