LAHORE:In a landmark initiative to promote innovation and recognise the achievements of its inventors, the University of Engineering and Technology (UET) Lahore on Monday inaugurated a dedicated Patent Wall.

The ceremony was led by Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Shahid Munir (TI), alongside Deans from all faculties and heads of various teaching and non-teaching departments. The establishment of the Patent Wall reflects a global trend in academia, where universities aim to honour the significant contributions of their researchers and scientists. At the first stage, almost 21 patents have already been approved. ‘This initiative not only highlights our technological achievements but also inspires our students to pursue careers in invention and entrepreneurship,’ said Dr Shahid Munir. ‘By showcasing our patents, we aim to cultivate a vibrant research culture that encourages innovation and collaboration,’ he added.
