Minister without Portfolio in the Office of the Prime Minister with responsibility for Science, Technology and Special Projects, Dr Andrew Wheatley, has unveiled a National Science, Technology and Innovation (ST&I) architecture dubbed the “House of Innovation”, aimed at transforming Jamaica’s innovation landscape and driving economic growth.
Making his contribution to the 2026/27 Sectoral Debate in Parliament on Tuesday, Wheatley said the initiative will create a more cohesive science, technology and innovation environment while addressing fragmentation within the sector.
The framework is designed to establish focused research and development (R&D), lower barriers to innovation, and create investment and monitoring mechanisms to support excellence and accountability.
