As part of the celebration to its 70th Anniversary Celebrations, the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) held a Science and Technology Exhibition from the 10th to 13th of May 202

The Vice-Chancellor, industry players, academia, science, technology, engineering, and mathematics enthusiast, students, and the public came to witness the forward-thinking innovative projects from the various Departments and Colleges of the University.

Exhibits which included drones, solar-powered light systems, eco-friendly furniture, food items, home safety systems, aquaponic systems, improved animal breeds, omega-3 enhanced eggs, health devices, and many more were on display.

At the end of the exhibition, one of the exhibits from the Department of Wood Science and Technology of the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources was adjudged the third place in a keenly contested competition of innovative products of the exhibition. The innovative exhibit was a retractable and foldable bamboo minibar. The design of this minibar seeks to minimise the use of space by being foldable and retractable and also save the forest through the use of bamboo which is a lesser-known wood species for furniture in Ghana.
