He said the idea was to enhance ways of commercialising the prototypes so that they can be deployed in improving the delivery of telecom services, as well as improving the quality of the services.
”Technology is an ongoing process it keeps changing, and developing new technologies, so you cannot just sit down and continue doing things the same way and expect results , if you
want better result you must explore such opportunity through research and development “

He added that NCC has invested over half a billion Naira in various research within the Nigerian university system.
In their separate remarks the vice-chancellors of Ahmadu Bello Zaria, Usman Danfodio University Sokoto and Abubakar Tafawa belewa University Bauchi described the stakeholder’s meeting as timely.
The meeting was attended by members of the Telecom industry and other stakeholders.
