<p id="7e4b" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Championships are not just won — they are defended, sustained, and lived. The crown may have slipped away last season, but the De La Salle University (DLSU) Green Archers are hungrier than ever. With a new season waiting for them, their hunger is not about revenge, but about redemption, brotherhood, and about the legacy they continue to build for the Green and White.</p>
<p id="e582" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Now, as the UAAP Season 88 campaign dawns, the Green Archers return not as a team chasing what was lost, but as one reforged in defeat. The battles of the past have shaped the Green Archers into a tougher, smarter team. Season 88 isn’t just about reclaiming a lost crown — it’s about showing once more what La Salle basketball is built on: excellence, resilience, and a fire that won’t burn out.</p>
<p id="8416" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">With Michael “Mike” Phillips leading the way and a brotherhood that allows every player to be their true self, the team steps into the new season with renewed purpose. Season 87 — from the highs of defending their title to the heartbreak of the Finals — was a test of resilience, a lesson in growth, and a reminder that greatness isn’t defined by a single outcome but by the ability to rise again.</p>

<p id="cb12" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Reflecting on that journey, Mike said, <em class="pu">“I think that one of the biggest reasons for our growth was the failure that we experienced. When failure comes, it really shines a light on everything. It showed us we had a lot of ugly spots, a lot of things we haven’t dealt with yet. So we’re just grateful to God that we were able to go through those things, because it really made us refine what we have right now.”</em></p>
<p id="d3e0" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">After Season 87, the Green Archers returned to the court with heads held high. They showed early that their hunger for victory isn’t just talk — it’s built into every game, every possession, every play. They claimed the crown at the AsiaBasket 2025 College Campus Tour, tested themselves against top international competition in the World University Basketball Series in Japan, and later competed in the FilOil EcoOil Preseason Cup, where they swept the eliminations with a perfect record before falling in the semifinals. Each of these campaigns sharpened their skills, strengthened their resolve, and fueled their momentum as they set their sights on reclaiming the UAAP crown in Season 88.</p>
<p id="337f" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Looking back on their preseason run, Mike pointed to one word that stood out: <strong class="ov iu">adaptability</strong>. <em class="pu">“We were so used to sticking to what works for us, we were scared to step out of our comfort zones and try new things. But when we got to Japan, everyone had a different style of playing, a different set of players,” </em>he shared. For him, the chance to face international competition — unlike the familiar opponents they see in local tournaments — gave the team an opportunity to learn, adjust, and put themselves out there in ways they hadn’t before.</p>
<h3 id="13c6" class="pv pw it bg px gq py ef gr gs pz eh gt gu qa gv gw gx qb gy gz ha qc hb hc qd bl" data-selectable-paragraph=""><strong class="an">Anchoring by Experience and Fueled by Fresh Faces</strong></h3>
<p id="5df0" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow qe oy oz pa qf pc pd gu qg pf pg gx qh pi pj ha qi pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">With the preseason behind them, the stakes of Season 88 are clear. The Green Archers are not only chasing redemption but also proving that their foundation is strong enough to carry them forward. And at the heart of that pursuit is leadership — the veterans who have carried the banner through triumphs and heartbreak, and the newcomers now tasked with writing the next chapter of La Salle basketball.</p>

<p id="89b1" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Following the departure of Kevin Quiambao and Joshua David, the Green Archers turn to captain Mike, co-captain Earl Abadam, and seasoned teammates JC Macalalag, EJ Gollena, and Bright Nwankwo to set the tone. Not just as mentors, but as battle-tested competitors ready to push the team to every ounce of its potential.</p>
<p id="173a" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">This veteran core now stands as La Salle’s foundation, steering the team into Season 88. Mike reflects on how his perspective on leadership has evolved: he learned that leading isn’t just about directing others, but about serving the team and giving everyone a voice. <em class="pu">“A true leader goes in front of the team and leads them to where they’re going, not just boss them around,”</em> he said.</p>
<p id="0692" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Earl, meanwhile, emphasizes leading by example, showing consistency both on and off the court. <em class="pu">“I just try to be an example every day—at practice, in the dorms, at any team events,”</em> he explained. <em class="pu">“It’s about seeing the best in everything and instilling that mindset in the team.”</em> Together, Mike and Earl provide a balance of guidance, faith, and steady leadership that the team can rely on.</p>
<p id="7c6f" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">That sense of humility carries into the way they welcome the newest Archers. When asked about the team’s newcomers, Mike couldn’t help but smile. <em class="pu">“I think the rookies are fun, they give me so much energy! Ang kulit nila, ang saya nila, but at the same time, they’re very coachable. Honestly, they make me feel like a rookie again. I think it’s a blessing to have these kinds of guys as a senior and as a captain,”</em> he shared.</p>
<p data-selectable-paragraph="">The energy comes from a deep pool of additions this year: transferees Jacob Cortez, Mason Amos, Luis Pablo, Kean Baclaan, and Dominic Sarmiento bring experience and skill from their previous stops, while the rookie class — Lebron Jhames Daep, Gian Gomez, Guillian Quines, Denzel Dagdag, Michael Cortez, and Ram Sharma — infuses the squad with youthful hunger and fresh potential.</p>

<p id="49c6" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow qe oy oz pa qf pc pd gu qg pf pg gx qh pi pj ha qi pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">With experienced leaders at the helm and a group of newcomers eager to make their mark, the Green Archers step into Season 88 as a team reshaped by guidance and energy.</p>
<p id="ec89" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Preparation extends beyond shooting drills and playbooks. Central to the Green Archers’ readiness is a rigorous strength and conditioning program led by Miguel Aytona, which builds endurance and resilience. Mike explained how much it contributes to the team’s edge: <em class="pu">“Our entire strength and conditioning program is so dedicated. Everything is calculated, we learn what it really means to take care of your body and be tactical in your approach. Over the last two to three years, we’ve been through trial and error — what works for us and what doesn’t. It unlocked a new level of dedication. They’re the reason we were able to win a championship in 86 and extend it to a game three in 87, because they built us up to be able to withstand everything.”</em></p>
<p id="1eb1" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">By investing in their physical foundation, the Green Archers ensure that when the season begins, they are ready to execute at full capacity: physically strong, and primed to compete at the highest level.</p>
<p id="464f" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">With their bodies primed and endurance tested, the Green Archers now turn their focus to the mental and cultural side of the game. Strength and conditioning may set the stage, but it’s trust, leadership, and shared purpose that will define how they perform under pressure.</p>
<p id="a890" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph=""><em class="pu">“The biggest challenge we have is limiting the outside noise and not letting that affect our inner culture,”</em> Mike explained. <em class="pu">“The expectations for this team are really high, and I know it can put so much pressure on our guys, especially the rookies. I think letting that pressure get to us can lead to things like trying to win the game by ourselves rather than work as a team. We have to really put our trust fully in one another. We have to surrender everyone’s ego.”</em></p>
<p id="830b" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">For the Green Archers, every practice, every game, and every challenge is an opportunity to reinforce trust, unity, and the kind of teamwork that turns potential into results. As Coach Topex Robinson often reminds them, winning is just a byproduct of what they’re doing. The true focus is on inspiring others and building a brotherhood that lasts beyond the court.</p>
<p class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Mike and Earl take that mindset a step further, emphasizing faith, leadership, and resilience. But make no mistake — the Green Archers aren’t just playing with heart — they play to win, to compete at the highest level, and to test themselves against anyone who steps on the court with them. Mike highlighted the team’s larger purpose: <em class="pu">“We play to inspire. We don’t just want to win games or championships; we also want to represent La Salle and inspire the next generation.”</em> Earl adds that their growth off the court has carried over into their play: <em class="pu">“We treat others with respect and approach every day with a grateful mindset — and that translates when we play. When things get tough, me and Mike will be there to guide and support them.”</em></p>
<p id="a03b" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">With lessons learned, veterans leading the way, and new talent adding energy, the Green Archers enter Season 88 ready to define their identity. Strengthened by past setbacks, guided by faith, and fueled by a mix of experience and fresh potential, they are prepared to face every challenge head-on.</p>
<p id="133e" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ot ou it ov b ow ox oy oz pa pb pc pd gu pe pf pg gx ph pi pj ha pk pl pm pn hu bl" data-selectable-paragraph="">Every game will test their resilience, every opponent will demand their best, and every moment on the court will reflect the spirit that drives them. This is their time to rise, to inspire, and to write another chapter in the history of La Salle basketball.</p>

<div class="wpb_wrapper">
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At the University General Assembly this AY 2025-2026, DLSU President Br. Bernard Oca FSC expressed gratitude to the community for their work and for reaching the Golden Jubilee of the University Charter. In his message to the faculty, personnel, students, and partners of DLSU, he also urged everyone to recommit to the DLSU education philosophy of </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Teaching Minds, Touching Hearts, Transforming Live</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">s, “a philosophy that springs from timeless and enduring Lasallian values: a Spirit of Faith, Zeal for Service, and Communion in Mission.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The UGA, which was held last September 12 at the Chapel of the Most Blessed Sacrament, also featured messages from Provost Dr. Robert Roleda and Senior Vice President and VP for Administration Kai Shan Fernandez, who shared the achievements and milestones of the past academic year as well as the University’s priority goals and directions for AY 2025-2026.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We were certainly very mindful of this promise when we announced at the beginning of our Jubilee Strategic Planning cycle, that De La Salle University is “Here for the Future”. The question as ever of course remains: What kind of future? Those of us who have been around long enough will know that universities have faced a version of this existential question roughly once every decade,” Br. Bernie said. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Teaching Minds</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, he said: “Let us put all our effort, without counting the cost, toward developing knowledge and understanding among our students. Let us gently but steadfastly awaken them to their responsibilities: to society, to our planet, and above all to our Creator.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">On the work of</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Touching Hearts</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, he urged the audience: “Let a more critical understanding of the world result in an overflow of compassion and zeal to build a just, humane, and loving society. Let our ears attune to the call of the poor, the vulnerable, and those on the margins, and let our eyes see them as co-designers of a shared and sustainable future.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Pointing out that the work of educators culminates in </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Transforming Lives</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, he said: “It is not the work of individuals; the Lasallian way is to labor together and by association, so that our students go into the world ready to be competent professionals, engaged citizens, and yes, prophetic leaders, who will not hesitate to give of themselves, because they know what it is like to receive grace from others.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Br. Bernie likewise highlighted building on “Gratitude for the past, fortitude for the future.” He further called on everyone to exemplify these virtues, toward fulfilling the promise of hybrid learning, first-rate service at DLSU, and using the tools and routines of high-performing teams to get the most out of La Salle’s talents.</span></p>

<p><b><i>Significant developments, future directions</i></b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Provost Dr. Robert Roleda shared the most significant developments of Academic Year 2024-2025 in DLSU academics as well as the future directions of the University for the second half of the Jubilee Strategic Plan cycle.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He cited the rollout of Challenge-Based Learning or CBL at the School of Innovation and Sustainability in Laguna, which is being implemented with 67 undergraduates taking BS in Entrepreneurship, BS in Computer Science, and BS in Information Technology.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Likewise, he cited DLSU’s Policy on Generative Artificial Intelligence, which comes into effect this AY 2025-2026. The policy is aimed at the responsible use of powerful technologies by leading with solid principles (i.e., transparency, disclosure, accountability, human agency, critical engagement) and defining guidelines collaboratively. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He also bannered the national government’s proclamation that part of the Laguna Campus is now a Knowledge, Innovation, Science and Technology (KIST) Ecozone. This is in line with the Jubilee Goal 2 (Impact), highlighting the generation of new sources of national growth from a green knowledge ecosystem. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">According to him, DLSU shall measure success by three objectives: excellent educational innovation; student experience; and new growth. By 2027, the targets are: at least 80 percent of undergraduate courses will integrate AI-enabled, experiential learning, and Education for Sustainable Development; at least 85 percent of students will report satisfaction in annual student experience surveys; and at least 10 percent of total enrollment will come from non-traditional sources and new markets.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For her part, Senior Vice President and VP for Administration Kai Shan Fernandez presented the infrastructure developments on both the Laguna and Manila campuses, including newly completed campus infrastructure projects and renovated spaces such as classrooms, microteaching and medical physics laboratories and workspaces. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Other developments she shared were the following: the completed switch-over to 100 percent renewable energy for all eligible buildings on both campuses; the launch of Archers Hub, DLSU’s new Student Life Cycle management system; continued improvements of DLSU’s IT infrastructure and information system security as well as network services expansion; and documented improvements to the procurement system. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">She also cited the recent implementation of Outcomes-Based Budgeting (OBB) as a major step forward in being able to program and deploy DLSU resources effectively. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fernandez pointed out that to reconcile objectives and constraints, there must be a Lasallian model of service that combines two elements: one is enhancing DLSU’s in-house capabilities for delivering service and the other is doing more self-service.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“This means learning to do more basic tasks independently, relying less on staff to do them for us, so that they may be deployed toward higher-value activities,” she said. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“As with CLAYGO, we want our expectations of service level delivery to be consistent with the values and leadership traits we wish to develop within our students. We want them to be prepared to do more things without too much supervision or assistance; we want them to be a blessing and not a burden to their future colleagues,” she added.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">De La Salle University Laguna Campus is now a Knowledge, Innovation, Science and Technology (KIST) Ecozone, following a proclamation by Malacanan Palace on July 30, 2025. It is the first Philippine private higher education institution to receive this recognition. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> A KIST park is a specific type of ecozone created by PEZA. DLSU’s KIST Ecozone is a dynamic space for fostering knowledge exchange, innovation, and technological advancements while promoting sustainability.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It offers a collaborative ecosystem that develops transformative solutions for a sustainable future guided by Lasallian principles of ethical leadership, social responsibility, and a commitment to lifelong learning. It serves as a catalyst for progress in science, technology, and innovation. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In 2017, De La Salle University began the process of applying for a PEZA ecozone to host startups, entrepreneurs, and research centers working in collaboration with the university for program development, academic, research and development activities. This initiative aligns with the strategic direction of establishing knowledge, innovation, and sustainability-driven institutional goals. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Covering five hectares of the 51-hectare Laguna Campus, KIST Ecozone integrates academia, industry, government, and community in driving interdisciplinary research, innovation, and commercialization of green technologies, eco-friendly solutions and sustainable practices.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In a message to the Lasallian community, DLSU President Br. Bernard Oca FSC expressed hope that this development would inspire all to promote innovation, the commercialization of green technologies, eco-friendly solutions, and sustainable development.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Joining the activity were VP of Research and Innovation Prof. Raymond Tan, VP for External Relations and Internationalization Prof. Anthony SF Chiu, Director of the Center for Engineering and Sustainable Development Research Prof. Alvin Culaba, Director of Center for Natural Sciences and Environmental Research Prof. Angelyn Lao, Gokongwei College of Engineering Dean Prof. Kathleen Aviso, and Chair of the Department of Electronics and Computer Engineering Prof. Argel Bandala. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The five-year MOU seeks to facilitate the following objectives: the promotion of student exchange and dual degree programs; the promotion of essays, publications, theses, and research-related information; and the promotion of institutional exchange by inviting faculty and staff for joint research projects.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The two universities have collaborated on the Agricultural Thermoelectric Plant Patch Integration for Pathogenic Disease Resiliency and Computational Intelligence-Embedded Decision Support System through Internet of Living Things (AGRI-TECT), with Dr. Ronnie Concepcion II (DLSU-DMEM) and Prof. Chih-Yang Lin as the principal investigators from each country.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">AGRI-TECT is supported by the Manila Economic and Cultural Office – Taipei Economic and Cultural Office Joint Science & Technology Cooperation Program (MECO-TECO JRP), </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Under their ongoing collaboration, the Taiwan team focuses on the implementation of AI to support farmers whereas the Philippine team is focused more on the development of a polymer-based plant wearable sensor with embedded intelligence for detection of pathogens such as Fusarium and Ralstonia that are infesting the potato and tomato industries. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The teams also visited relevant agencies and farm sites in Benguet Province, including Haight’s Place farm which is one of the project’s intended product deployment sites. They were joined by two representatives from the Atok Municipal Hall, Engr. Bonifacio Lipa-od from the Atok Municipal Planning and Development Office and Ms. Deling Betwag from the Atok Municipal Agriculture Office. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A student of the De La Salle University – Tañada-Diokno School of Law (TDSOL) ranked 2nd place in the Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA) Space Policy and Law Essay Writing Contest. The awarding took place on 9 August 2025, during Philippine Space Week celebrations hosted by PhilSA.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With the theme “What is outer space and how should our national laws define it?”, the contest challenged law students nationwide to tackle a fundamental question at the intersection of law and science. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In his essay, “Drawing the Line with the Pen of Law: Defining Outer Space”, TDSOL student Justin Christopher de Borja proposed a Philippine legal definition of “outer space” that is rooted in scientific evidence while upholding the principles of governance, sovereignty, and international law. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">By weaving together constitutional mandates, scientific reasoning, and state practice, his essay highlighted the Philippines’ proactive role in shaping the future of global space policy – beginning with a definition that is both pragmatic and internationally recognized. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In a historic achievement for Philippine representation in quantum computing, three De La Salle University students secured the top three spots at the Southeast Asia Quantum Hackathon (SEA Quantathon) 2025 held on August 1 to 3 in Bangkok, Thailand.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kyle Lasala (MS-BSCS IV), Roi Victor Roberto (MS-BSCS III), and Edward Russhel Hernandez (MS Physics II) took the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd spots respectively after a 48-hour hackathon where they developed and pitched innovative quantum-based solutions to real-world problems. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The three who made up the official Philippine delegation were chosen from more than 100 applicants. Notably, they were later placed on different teams and each competed independently across six finalist teams. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The selection process was managed by the Quantum Computing Society of the Philippines (QCSP). DLSU Department of Computer Technology faculty Roger Luis Uy and Dylan Lopez joined QCSP in training delegates on technical methods, solution design, and pitch delivery. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The team also underwent intensive training facilitated by the South East Asian Quantum Network. Strong focus was placed on United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), particularly Climate Change, Health, and Energy.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The competition’s judging panel included global experts from the United Nations, Open Quantum Institute in Geneva, Amazon Web Services, other leading quantum technology companies, and regional organizations across ASEAN. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Funding for the event was supported by the Open Quantum Institute, a pioneering initiative under the Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator, affiliated with CERN. Additional support came from UNESCO through its International Year of Quantum initiative, highlighting the importance of quantum science for sustainable development.</span></p>
<p><b>“</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">This landmark achievement positions the Philippines at the forefront of quantum innovation in Southeast Asia. As quantum technology continues to evolve, the contributions of young Filipino scientists like Kyle, Roi, and Edward demonstrate that the nation is not just keeping pace, but is also leading the charge,” team mentor Roger Luis Uy said.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At De La Salle University, innovation is supported by an integrated ecosystem led by three offices: the DLSU Intellectual Property Office (DIPO), the DLSU Innovation and Technology Office (DITO), and Animo Labs, the university’s technology business incubator. Together, they guide ideas from creation, to protection, to real-world application.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">DIPO is responsible for the protection and management of University-owned intellectual property. It secures and manages the protection of University-owned IP, advises faculty, students, and staff on protecting their own IP, and facilitates the registration with the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL). It implements the DLSU IP policies and recommends enforcement actions when necessary. DIPO also leads Knowledge and Technology Transfer activities, manages the utilization and commercialization of University-owned IP, serves as a “gateway” for industry collaboration, and is responsible for signing licensing agreements on behalf of the University. In addition, it engages with internal and external stakeholders, answers IP-related queries, organizes awareness activities, supervises the Intellectual Property Advocates (IPA) student organization, and builds partnerships with different industries.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">DITO on the other hand is a service provider that focuses on the support needed for Knowledge and Technology Transfer. It aids DIPO in implementing the Knowledge and Technology Transfer Policy, managing the utilization and commercialization of University-owned IP, and creating and executing marketing strategies for University researchers and their innovations. DITO leads negotiations for licensing agreements, monitors licensee compliance, receives and helps compute royalty payments, and may provide patent services to the University and third parties. It also engages with stakeholders, referring new ventures to incubators such as Animo Labs, building relationships for commercialization opportunities, and helping build capacity in knowledge and technology transfer. DITO coordinates with other units, analyzes and reports its program results, co-represents the University in IP-related events, supervises the UNBOXD student startup organization, and may assist in the utilization of non-University-owned IP.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Animo Labs is at the forefront of technopreneurship and research-based startups. It provides a nurturing environment that mainly endures mentorships programs, industry and investor connections, as well as training and workspace opportunities. The university’s representative primarily enables groundbreaking innovations into the transformation intended for market-ready conjectures. As such, they not only cultivate the strong commercialization potential within the company but seek to communicate their ideas on a global and international scale. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Together, these three entities form DLSU’s innovation pipeline. DIPO ensures ideas are protected and managed as valuable intellectual assets. DITO develops strategies to bring these assets to market, builds industry partnerships, and manages licensing. Animo Labs provides the entrepreneurial environment for innovations to grow into sustainable businesses. This collaborative framework ensures that the creativity and research output of the DLSU community are transformed into innovations with real societal and economic impact.</span></p>
