NSIWC Identifies Technology as the Nucleus of Development

The Chairman, National Salaries, Incomes and Wages Commission (NSIWC), Major General Junaid S. Bindawa (Rtd) PhD, says countries all over the world develop through technology incubation.

Major General Bindawa (Rtd) stated this when he hosted the Management Staff of the National Board for Technology Incubation (NBTI), led by its Director General, Dr Kazeem Kolawole Raji, on a courtesy visit to the Commission.

He noted that because of the importance attached to technology, it should form the engine of national development, as is the case in Pakistan and India, where he served during his service in the military.

Major General Bindawa, who asserted that no country develops without basic technology incubation, stressed the need to motivate the workforce of the Board for more productivity.

In his presentation, the Director General, National Board for Technology Incubation (NBTI), Dr Kazeem Kolawole Raji noted that the Board has 58 Technology Incubation Centres (TIS), NEXTGEN Inversion Challenges and Artificial Intelligence and Robotic Lab.

Dr Raji said the National Board for Technology Incubation is set to move the Indigenous Technology to Emerging Technology, the reason the Agency is seeking a highly motivated staff to achieve the mandate.
