South Africa’s Technology Showcase and Matchmaking Event

The Innovation Bridge Technology Matchmaking and Showcasing Event is an initiative of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), aimed at enabling linkages and networking between South African and international innovators, industry and public and private technology development, and commercialisation funding partners. Innovation Bridge 2017 will take place at Gallagher Convention Centre on 15 September 2017.

The event aims to encourage and accelerate the utilisation and commercialisation of new and existing knowledge and technologies that have been developed in publicly funded South African research and technology development institutions.

This focus on publicly funded research and technology development differentiates Innovation Bridge from other innovation and technology conferences and exhibitions.

The 2017 event will be implemented by DST, the Technology Innovation Agency (TIA) and the National Intellectual Property Management Office (NIPMO).
