Welcome to the UNIMAS Centre for Research, Development, Innovation, Commercialisation & Economy

At RDICE, we bring together research, innovation, and entrepreneurship to transform bold ideas into meaningful impact. By empowering our researchers, students, and industry partners with the right resources and networks, we aim to create solutions that drive progress for Sarawak, Malaysia, and the world.

Our work focuses on what matters most — from sustainable technologies and digital transformation to healthcare innovations and indigenous knowledge. Collaboration is our greatest strength; by connecting academia, industry, and government, we ensure that discoveries go beyond the lab to benefit both society and industry.

As we move forward in line with Malaysia’s Vision 2030, our commitment remains clear: to nurture innovation that is responsible, future-driven, and impactful. Together, let us continue shaping a sustainable and prosperous future.
