To nurture national talents. The National Office for Technology Acquisition and Promotion (NOTAP) is one of the parastatals.
In this present era of globalization and liberalization in the world economy, a nation must be able to harness her ideas inventions, innovations and creative works towards technological advancement and global competitiveness. Nigeria requires identification of her researchers and inventors; creation of an enabling environment and to initiate strategies to protect all the stakeholders and their cre
ative works. The Federal Government of Nigeria, in recognition and appreciation of the above facts, established the Science and Technology Ministry with its various parastatals and agencies. NOTAP's Mission and, statutory mandates are clearly stated on this website. Our activities include Evaluation/Registration of Technology Transfer Agreements; Promotion of Intellectual Property; Technology Advisory and Support Services; Commercialization of R&D Results; Research Industry Linkage; Production of Compenduim Management Information System; Publication of Project Profiles on R&D Results etc. It is my humble belief that, NOTAP, through its current and future activities, backed with dedicated and efficient personnel, adequate Government support and funding, would take this country to greater heights Scientifically and Technologically.
