Registry of Foreign-Based Filipino Scientists, Engineers, and Technology Entrepreneurs

The Philippine embassy in the US through its San Francisco consulate on Saturday launched the very first Registry of Foreign-Based Filipino Scientists, Engineers, and Technology Entrepreneurs (Technopreneurs).

The Philippine government hopes to tap into the pool of exemplary Filipino scientists and techno entrepreneurs who are making a name for themselves outside their home country. The Philippines lags among Asean countries in its pursuit of major socio-economic transformation and advancement by cultivating its local academic pool.

Accessing the registry can be done through the following steps:

1. log on to the website;
2. click the DoST Registry for Scientists, Engineers, and Technology Entrepreneurs;
3. accomplish the form online and submit;
4. acknowledgement/notification shall be received by the registrant through e-mail.

Registrants in the registry shall receive regular updates of the registry project.
