The MPOB Technical Seminar (MTecS) series was newly introduced in 2014, and intended to be part of MPOB’s Technical Advisory Services (TAS) programme to provide and impart technical information on palm oil to industry members, university students, medical groups, academicians, researchers, government policy makers, organisations and general consumers. The programme is generally aimed at creating greater awareness on palm oil nutritional characteristics and its applications in both food and non-food segments. The seminars will not only help bridge the knowledge gap among the target groups on the usage and virtues of palm oil, but will also allow them to build special rapport with MPOB over the long term.
