The event started with an opening program participated by the administrators, participants, stakeholders, and guests. A doxology was performed by Mr. Eduardo P. Bragado and Ms. Heniecy Ann B. Morts, and the NVSU Koro was led by Mr. Lionel Luis F. Dumelod for the national anthem and Vizcaya Hymn.

Dr. Carlo F. Vadil, Campus Administrator for Bambang Campus warmly welcomed all delegates after hosting this year?s UIHR.

Furthermore, he accentuated the importance of collaborations between senior and junior researchers, and encouraged them to invest their time and effort collectively to learn from each other?s expertise. ?Kailangan natin silang i-train para sa mas mahihirap pang responsibilidad at pagdating sa research undertaking. Kailangan na nating tumawid from being a research university into a technopreneurial university.? He later left three keywords as he concluded his speech, which were ?positivity?, ?optimism? and ?prosperity? towards a better NVSU.
