============================
Dr. Amare Kassaw, Director of BiTec, was proud to announce that our talented students have emerged victorious in the GIZ-Ethiopia Agribusiness Idea Competition (ABIC2024) Incubation Program!
In collaboration with GIZ-Ethiopia's R&D Group, the program equipped students with essential entrepreneurial and agri-venture design skills. Through rigorous training, incubation, and mentorship, our students developed innovative business ideas that stood out among competitors from other universities.
Our winning projects are Ultrasound Glue Jel Production from Local Plants (ranked 1st): an innovative idea aims to produce a sustainable and eco-friendly adhesive from locally sourced plants, addressing the need for affordable and environmentally friendly adhesives in various industries and Bread Flour Manufacturing from BSG (ranked 3rd): a project which proposes to establish a local bread flour manufacturing facility, reducing dependency on imported flour and supporting local farmers.
Beyond Bahir Dar University, Hawassa, Adama Science and Technology, and Dilla Universities also participated in this GIZ-Ethiopia Agribusiness Idea Competition (ABIC2024) Incubation Program.
As previously reported, ninety students from Bahir Dar University initially underwent entrepreneurship and venture design bootcamp training in May 2024. Subsequently, six innovative business ideas were selected for incubation at BiTec. Over the ensuing three months, these ideas were incubated within Seifu BiT Makerspace, benefiting from technical and equipment support, mentorship, and business development training.”
A big congratulations to our hardworking and innovative students! We're proud of your accomplishments.
Dr. Amare also extended his sincere gratitude to Bahir Dar University, GIZ Ethiopia R&D group, Growth Africa, the BiT Information and Strategic Communication Directorate and the BiTec team for their invaluable support.
