How do we turn research into real-world impact?
That was the central question at National Research Week (NRW) 2025, where Business Mauritius joined forces with the Ministry of Tertiary Education, Science, Research & Technology and the Mauritius Research and Innovation Council.
Our Head of Economic Affairs, Zaahira Ebramjee, led a thought-provoking dialogue on “Future-Proofing Academic Research for Industry 5.0.” She highlighted the urgent need to build stronger, more agile bridges between academia and business—so that research doesn’t stay confined to paper but becomes real-world innovation that benefits people and markets.
The NRW 2025 Compendium now captures these insights and actionable recommendations, setting the foundation for what comes next.
As we look toward National Research Week 2026, we remain committed to growing this platform into a powerful catalyst—where research excellence, business innovation, and public policy converge.
