Cohort 1 incubatees present innovations at Demo Day
The DOST-CSPC ASOG Technology Business Incubator (ASOG TBI) successfully convened the Cohort 1 Demo Day on July 30, 2026, at the ASOG TBI Incubation Center, highlighting the progress of the startup ventures developed through its ALTITUDE Program.
The Demo Day served as a platform for the incubatees to present the outcomes of their incubation journey before representatives from government agencies, industry, academia, and the regional startup ecosystem.
Participating startups included banoX, HydroFi, oMEfi, Pharma Dose Grip, CSPC Sabay, SLyTher, and XpHectra.
During the presentations, the incubatees discussed the technical, commercial, and strategic aspects of their innovations, providing updates on their progress and outlining their plans for the next stage of development. An open forum followed, allowing invited guests to share insights, raise questions, and explore opportunities for future collaboration with the participating teams.
Among those in attendance were representatives from the Department of Agriculture Regional Office V, Department of Science and Technology – Camarines Sur, Local Government Unit of Bula, Naga College Foundation, Bicol Consortium for Regional Startup Enablers, Camarines Sur Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Bald Puppies Solutions, HAKA Naga, Hydrofora Hydroponics Farm, and A.A. Ilarde Poultry Farm, together with students, faculty, and staff of Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges (CSPC).
The activity was graced by the CSPC administration led by Dr. Amado A. Oliva, Jr., College President; Dr. Challiz D. Omorog, Vice President for Research, Innovation, and Collaboration; and Dr. Jocelyn O. Jintalan, Vice President for Academic Affairs.
For ASOG TBI’s inaugural cohort, the Demo Day served as the final major showcase before completing the ALTITUDE Program. It also marked an important transition from structured incubation to the next phase of startup development, as the incubatees prepare to pursue commercialization, strengthen industry linkages, and continue refining their innovations beyond the program.
