Scientific-Technological Park of Havana will sign the first contract for the execution of a project

 

The Scientific-Technological Park (PCT) of Havana, located in the University of Informatics Sciences (UCI), will sign its first contract for the execution of a project in October and will occupy the central building that corresponds to it on the campus.

The purpose of this new company is to promote scientific and technological development, innovation and the transfer of knowledge, with a view to contributing to the economic and social progress of the country from the new information and communication technologies.

According to Rafael Luis Torrralbas Ezpeleta, president of that company, one of the strengths of the initiative is to establish synergies between the UCI, other higher education centers, research institutions, companies and markets.

According to Torralbas, the start of the PCT has been conditioned by the epidemiological situation in the country, especially in Havana; however, the managing entity is fully operational.

The headquarters building is in the completion phase, as the culmination of the investment process coincided with the return of the city to the autochthonous transmission phase of COVID-19.

So far we have a portfolio of 26 projects, including solutions for industry, health, education, platforms for online services and e-commerce; In turn, several national and foreign companies, universities and forms of non-state management have shown interest in the opportunities that the Park offers, said Torralbas Ezpeleta.
