“They are brilliant ideas, but if they remain as an idea, then that’s all they are… We can’t just put them and then store them away. Gamitin natin ‘to… find a way to make it, commercialize it, to put it in the market, and for people to gain,” President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. emphasized during the 2024 National Invention Contest and Exhibits (NICE) Presidential Awards.
The journey of Filipino innovation begins in the regions and culminates on the national stage. The Regional Invention Contest and Exhibits (RICE) and the National Invention Contest and Exhibits (NICE) are interconnected platforms designed to discover, nurture, and elevate the country’s brightest inventors, innovators, and researchers. Conducted alternately every other year, RICE serves as the qualifying round for NICE, where the regional winners advance to compete at the national level.
