Filipino innovations took center stage at the global scene as the Department of Science and Technology - Technology Application and Promotion Institute (DOST-TAPI) was recognized for its participation in the National Science and Technology Fair 2024, August 16-25.

Held in Thailand, the institute received a recognition plaque from the Honorable Mr. Permsuk Sutchaphiwat, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research, and Innovation.
