Promoting Entrepreneurship: A Significant Impact for the University Community and Society

At UMECIT, we are convinced that promoting entrepreneurship has a significant impact in various areas, both for students and the university community as well as for society in general. The development of essential skills such as creativity, problem solving, decision making, leadership and risk management enhances valuable competencies both for starting a business and for performing more effectively in the world of work.

Promoting entrepreneurship facilitates the transfer of knowledge and technologies developed in academia to the market, which can result in new innovative products, services and processes. This interaction between academia and industry is crucial to boost the economy and promote innovation.

Collaboration with BANESCO and the University of Panama

In a concrete action to promote entrepreneurship, UMECIT, in coordination with BANESCO and the University of Panama, organized a series of training in Chitré, Herrera. These trainings, aimed at students and the general public, covered topics such as administration and other key aspects of entrepreneurship.

These activities have a multidimensional impact, contributing to the comprehensive development of students, the economic and social dynamism of communities, and the advancement of knowledge and innovation. This strategy is key to preparing future generations to face the challenges and take advantage of the opportunities of the modern world.

At UMECIT, we believe that the promotion of entrepreneurship is essential to build a more dynamic, innovative society prepared for the challenges of the future. Through these initiatives, we seek to empower our students and the community, providing them with the necessary tools to excel in the world of work and contribute positively to society.

This is how promoting entrepreneurship not only benefits individuals, but also strengthens communities and stimulates economic and social growth. We will continue working in this direction, convinced that we are building a better future for everyone.
