 Palawan Internal Technology Business Incubator speaker Jackielyn P. Isip was the tapped speaker of the said event, which focused on allowing the scholars to come up with possible projects geared towards entrepreneurship start-ups. On its first day of the two-day Innopren seminar-workshop, Ms. Isip introduced the business incubator, and its ties with entrepreneurship and how both can be realized through working together. At the end of Day 1, scholars were asked to bring home their planned prototypes which they need to present the next day.

During the second day, scholars were then shown various SIPs, and were indulged in various other activities. By the afternoon of day two, the scholars pitched their startup ideas in front of the "pseudo investors" said Isip, which were the teachers and staff of the PSHS-MRC which are Edward Albaracin, campus director, Glenn Atienza, CID Chief, and teachers Clint Fondevilla, Virgil Donovan Famini, and Jezreel Gaa.
