Tentatively, the Incubator Management Workshop is scheduled to be held on three (3) consecutive days in Davao City in October or November 2022. Details will be finalized considering the COVID-19 guidelines and protocols set by the local and national government.

HEIs who have previously participated in ISIP's Incubator Management Workshop will not be qualified to participate. This is to increase the reach of the ISIP in building the capacity of other HEIs.

HEIs may signify interest by submitting a signed cover letter from the HEI President to isip.ph@undp.org and by filling up this online application form before August 22, 2022.

The workshop is free for accepted HEIs into the ISIP program. Accommodations for HEI representatives or designated participants will also be covered by the program.
