🤝 Dodo Academy x CSU–TBI

We had the honor of hosting a collaboration meeting with CaragaRISE under Caraga State University – Technology Business Incubator at Dodo Workspace & Café, as we discussed shared plans and directions leading into 2026.

Together with Dr. Riah Encarnacion, CSU–TBI Director, and Ms. Hannah Faye Capoy, CCIS-College Intellectual Property Coordinator, we explored ways to co-collaborate in enhancing development opportunities for Cohort-9 incubatees from Navigatu – from hackathons and startup huddles to intensive bootcamps designed for real-world startup readiness.

Following the recent ceremonial MOU signing with CaragaRISE last November 10, 2025, this meeting marks another step toward building a stronger, more connected startup ecosystem in the region. We’re excited about what’s ahead and grateful for partnerships that turn ideas into action!

Innovation Meets Collaboration! 🚀
Dodo Academy × CSU CaragaRISE

A major milestone for Dodo Academy, widely known as Dodo Workspace & Café, as we officially sealed a partnership with Caraga State University (CSU) through its Technology Business Incubator (TBI) programs to strengthen support for local startups, MSMEs, and technopreneurs.

The ceremonial MOU signing was held at Navigatu TBI, CSU–Ampayon Campus on November 10, 2025. Representing the institutions were Dominique Haas, Co-Owner of Dodo Coworking Space, and Dr. Rolyn C. Daguil, President of Caraga State University. Together with Dr. Riah E. Encarnacion, TBI Director of CSU; Ms. Jenelyn R. Asis, Project Lead of TARA ATBI; Dodo Coworking Space - Operations Manager Ms. Julia D. Aguillon and Project Lead Mrs. Joyce Michaela T. Duglas.

Through this partnership, Dodo Academy will deliver specialized workshops, co-working opportunities, and mentorship programs to empower startup founders and innovators in the Caraga region.

Together, Dodo Academy and CSU CaragaRISE are shaping a stronger innovation ecosystem empowering local talents, startups, and dreamers to rise and make an impact in Caraga and beyond! ✨
