Bancamiga and the Andrés Bello Catholic University (UCAB) signed a framework agreement for an inter-institutional strategic alliance to carry out actions and activities of common interest in different areas, aimed at promoting academic, business and social development.
The agreement was signed by the president of the Board of Directors of Bancamiga, Carmelo De Grazia and the rector of the UCAB, Arturo Peraza, during an event that took place in the university’s rectorate.
The agreement establishes the lines of collaboration between both institutions for the next five years, to carry out training activities and research projects, facilitate the exchange of enrolled students, academic research and service personnel, as well as promote joint publications.
The president of the Board of Directors of Bancamiga, Carmelo De Grazia, expressed his satisfaction at returning to his alma mater and contributing to the strengthening of the university: “We are going to make important efforts to continue supporting the university, fulfilling the objective of this framework agreement with various activities that we have been discussing.”
“The vision of investment in the country that Bancamiga is having, realizing that the training of human talent is the best way to invest in the country’s solution,” celebrated the rector Arturo Peraza.
Technological support and linkage
The agreement formalized several months of work between the two institutions and provided that after the signing, Bancamiga will deliver an IBM server, Model Power7, with 8 cores, which will be used for student training.
The executive president of IBM Venezuela, Germán Pacheco, was at the event, where he expressed that the “contribution that Bancamiga is making to the development of the country is fundamental” so that the university students have an education for work.
The server will allow students to be linked to the technology developed by IBM, known as System i, which represents more than 90% of the equipment used to support financial institutions.
In this way, young people will be prepared in the short and medium term for the world of work with the necessary skills, explained Roberto Parra, director of Technology and Organizational Management at Bancamiga.
Likewise, Bancamiga will sponsor the eighth Feria del Libro del Oeste de Caracas (FLOC) 2023, which will be held during the last week of November, on the Montalbán campus, where thousands of visitors are expected to attend the literary event.
“Bancamiga is supporting us to open culture to members of the university community, to the citizens of the Capital District who sometimes have few opportunities in this direction,” remarked rector Arturo Peraza.
Joint promotion of entrepreneurship
At the event, the alliance with the Centro de Emprendimiento de la UCAB was also announced for the edition of a manual with key information for Venezuelan entrepreneurs, as part of the training programs for the development of small and medium-sized entrepreneurs carried out by the financial institution.
“This manual will be the first publication of the Bancamiga editorial fund, which we hope to launch in 2024 with the academic support of the UCAB,” announced Milagro González, Director of Social Responsibility.
