Govt warns on replicating innovations

Government has warned on replication of innovations as over 250 Ugandan innovators registered for the 2024 National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) International space App challenge.

The global tech competition is aimed at solving challenges both on earth and space.

Doreen Agaba, the technical lead, Department of Aeronautics and Space Science at Uganda’s Science Technology and Innovation Secretariat, told innovators to desist from copying existing innovations.

“We want you to own what you are doing. We don’t want you to enter an innovation space when you are feeling inferior already. We need you to bring out that technology and innovation that the world has not yet seen,” Agaba guided on Monday.

She added: “We cannot keep doing technology the same way. It is always changing and so even space technology will have to evolve. There is no choice around it and you are the ones that will do this.”
