== '''Encouraging Faculty Innovation and Entrepreneurship''' ==
<p style="text-align: justify;"> NIDA faculty members work closely with industry and policy makers in government since its creation. They play a critical role in shaping national policies on improving innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem of the nation. Many of them are also influential journalists who are leading the country’s trend of digital technology, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit. All of these activities, in addition to teaching and research, are well supported by NIDA and its management because NIDA is aiming to be a thought leader for the nation when new and innovative ideas are needed. Furthermore, through Office of Educational Services, NIDA instructors are encouraged to provide consulting services to help businesses and government agencies solve their complex problems.<br/p>
