The auditorium of the University of La Laguna hosted today, Tuesday, June 16, the "Liquida y Comparte" event, the final event of the 13th edition of the project \u201cTeaching to Become Entrepreneurs\u201d<\/a>, An educational initiative to develop entrepreneurial skills and solidarity values among students.

Previously, the event was attended by Francisco J.

\"\"<\/a>Rector Francisco Garc\u00eda emphasized the significance of the university's main auditorium hosting such a "special" event, one deeply connected to the institution's values. "This project is at the very heart of who we are and who we aspire to be as a public university," he stated. He also highlighted the students' learning to work as a team, develop ideas, and give back to society. "With this work, they give us something fundamental: hope for building a better future," he concluded.<\/p>\n

Julio Brito, managing director of FGULL, highlighted the social value of the initiative and thanked all the participating entities for their involvement. \u201cThis project would not be possible without the support and commitment of all the institutions and organizations involved. It allows us to feel more useful as an organization and contribute to a more supportive society,\u201d he noted. He also praised the efforts of the participating students, thanking them for \u201ctheir work, dedication, and enthusiasm for sharing, learning, and undertaking new projects.\u201d.<\/p>\n

A cooperative is precisely the sum of many efforts to generate a benefit that returns to society.\u201d She also emphasized the importance of fostering the social economy from an early age and encouraged the students to maintain their entrepreneurial spirit: \u201cNever lose your enthusiasm for starting a business.\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The event continued with an inspiring speech by El Langui, and afterwards, the educational centers starred in the "Liquidate and Share" event, in which they presented the results of their cooperatives and made donations to different NGOs, demonstrating the solidarity nature of the project.<\/p>\n
