Senior public servants were on Friday, June 11th, enlightened on the functions of the institution, as the NIPI hosted the first in a series of stakeholdersâ consultations at the conference room of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce.
Fridayâs meeting heard presentations by Chairman Edmond Jackson, Executive Director Suzanne Joachim, Marketing Officer Cleo Jones-Huggins and board member Peter DeAbreau.
The consultations, which will also be held with the private sector, are aimed at introducing the stakeholders to the NIPI, and to get their input on the way forward for the institution. The series of consultations will culminate with the official launch of the NIPI in August.
