Dr. Edet noted the importance of adaptability and innovation in navigating an ever-changing landscape, reassuring students that they are not alone on this journey.

He urged students to take full advantage of the EDC, the Acceleration Hub, and the Innovation Hub, viewing these facilities as communities where they can connect with peers, share ideas, and learn from one another.


"Remember, the path to entrepreneurial success is rarely linear," Dr. Edet advised. "There will be challenges, setbacks, and moments of doubt, but with perseverance, dedication, and the support of our exceptional staff, you have the potential to achieve remarkable things." He concluded by encouraging students to embrace the skills and opportunities available to them and assured them of the university's unwavering support every step of the way.
