T.E.Centre

Welcome to the Technical and Entrepreneurship Centre, University of Ilorin

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the Technical and Entrepreneurship Centre (TEC), University of Ilorin. TEC occupies a unique position in the University community. Established by the University Senate in 2008, the Centre was conceived with responsibilities extending beyond conventional classroom instruction to encompass entrepreneurship education, practical skills development, business creation, community-based projects, technology development and commercialisation. Today, we stand at an important point in the evolution of that mandate. We are positioning TEC as a University-wide innovation, entrepreneurship and enterprise-development ecosystem, one that connects knowledge with skills, skills with innovation, innovation with enterprise, and enterprise with markets and measurable impact. Our ambition is clear: to position TEC as a leading African innovation, entrepreneurship and enterprise development centre that converts knowledge, skills, natural resources and innovative ideas into sustainable businesses, jobs, products and community impact.
