The TISC Program provides innovators, researchers, engineers, scientists, lectures, SMEs, investors in developing countries with access to locally based, high quality technology information and related services, helping them to exploit their innovation potential and manage their intellectual property (IP) rights. The aim of the program is to ensure that users have access to services tailored to their information technology needs.

Services provided by the TISC Network include;

Patent information searches

Scientific and technical literature searches

Technology trends and monitoring

Advisory services on intellectual property, technology transfer, innovation and commercialisation

TISC Program is a welcome development in Botswana in line with the WIPO Development Agenda of reducing the technical and scientific information gap between developing and least developed and industrialised countries.

The Botswana TISC Network institutions will assist researchers and scientists access information relevant to their research and product development works. Equipped with this information, the researchers can make informed decisions on how to progress with their scientific works thus: focus their R&D on improvement of the existing technology, better negotiations with investors on IP rights or outrightly abandon their research to avoid re-inventing the wheel, thus saving on usually limited funds.
