Cavite State University – Research Center launched the third episode of its webinar series entitled "Commercializing Technologies In SUCs: A Step-By-Step Guide". At the said event, Dr. Ruel M. Mojica, a professor from the Department of Agricultural and Food Engineering and a designated faculty researcher, served as the main speaker. Dr. Mojica has wide and reliable experience in technology commercialization. His various research has been successfully commercialized and helped a lot of people, especially those in the coffee industry. 

During his talk, he highlighted the current technological situation in the Philippines, the role of state universities and colleges (SUCs) in technology commercialization, and its impact on society. Dr. Mojica also shared his RMM’s Technology Commercialization Model, which was developed based on his own experiences as a researcher.
