“Our process of innovation, research and commercialization is really simple: we look for really good ideas from ourselves in Ateneo, from our partners and from around the world (through literature) for products, services and models. We would then spend a year of research and development time to create prototypes and proof of concepts, being an open innovation center we show these to our close partners and get feedback, buy-in and investment. We work and work until something gels or vector into another direction that has more promise.”

Vision

 
We envisage an Ateneo tightly coupled with Industry, Investors, Government, and the Base of the Pyramid. An Ateneo that helps the country create new products, systems, services, and even new industries that address National Priorities, like Clean Water, Food Security, Energy Access, Universal Health Care, and World Class Education.
 
Mission
 
To promote and facilitate collaborative research and problem solving, involving the academe, industry, government, and international partners. To develop market smart, innovative Ateneans, with demonstrated abilities, who innovate with a deep understanding of how technology creates new opportunities for the Philippines.
