The Technology Transfer and Business Development Office (TTBDO) of UP Mindanao, in collaboration with the ADDVentures Innovation Center, held a Seminar-Workshop on Problem Recognition and Value Proposition at the ADDVentures Innovation Center, Ateneo de Davao University.

The session gathered participants from Ateneo de Davao University, Davao Doctors College and UP Mindanao in an interactive learning environment, where they explored how to sharpen ideas into solutions with real impact. With speakers including our team’s very own, Ms. Raissa Cinco, MBA (Business Development Officer, TTBDO) and Dr. Raymond Sintos (Entrepreneurship Chairperson, ADDU SBG), participants learned practical strategies on identifying problems, understanding customers, and creating strong value propositions—highlighting that businesses exist to create and capture value, and without a clear problem to solve or customers to serve, any venture is set up for failure. Thank you to everyone who joined this collaborative event, and to ADDVentures for making this partnership possible. Here’s to more initiatives that strengthen the startup ecosystem in Davao.
