This is Lautaro Márquez, a Mechatronics Engineering student at the Faculty of Food Sciences (UNER) who participated in Huawei's Tech4Good competition, becoming one of the winners.
During midday this Monday, mayor Francisco Azcué received the young man from Concordia who will travel to China next year after being one of the winners of Huawei's Tech4Good competition.
This is Lautaro Márquez, a Mechatronics Engineering student at the Faculty of Food Sciences of the National University of Entre Ríos (UNER), who was awarded a scholarship by the aforementioned company and will travel representing not only Argentina but also Latin America.
During the meeting with the Municipal President, the Vice Dean of the aforementioned Faculty, Marina Zapata, and representatives of the firm Huawei in Argentina, Javier Cortés and Federico Forastier, were also present.
PRIDE
“For us as residents of Concordia, it is a source of pride,” said mayor Azcué, also highlighting the role and quality of education at the Faculty of Food Sciences of the National University of Entre Ríos.
“We need Concordia to continue growing and betting on education,” and for that, “we must promote this articulation between the public and private sectors; with intermediate institutions and companies, so that the city can continue to develop.”
Zapata, in turn, also focused on local talent, stating that “as the mayor pointed out, it is a source of pride to have this level of talent in the city and these internationalization experiences, which are always enriching,” she pointed out.
OBJECTIVE CHINA
For his part, Lautaro mentioned that there is no confirmed date yet for his trip to China, but that in any case, “we are preparing ourselves because we know it is next year,” adding that they continue working on the project presented “because we know it can be improved and reach the level of an international competition, such as the one that awaits us.”
Márquez is part of the LIT4ALL (Litoral for all) team, which presented the Li+ project, with the vision of being leaders in the recycled lithium battery management market and the mission of increasing the use of used batteries by 40% over the next 10 years.
The initiative is part of what is known as “Seeds for the Future,” which is Huawei's flagship global corporate social responsibility program, available in several regions where the company has a presence.
Since its launch in Latin America in 2014, it has benefited more than 2,100 students in 20 countries in the region, providing training in cutting-edge technologies and fostering cultural exchange and entrepreneurship.
NEW OPPORTUNITIES
The representatives of Huawei in Argentina expressed interest in being able to develop and implement training initiatives in our city and to have a relationship with the Municipality of Concordia.
“For us, as a private company, this articulation is very important, so we will surely stay in touch to explore new opportunities. Huawei, as a world leader in technological infrastructure, is always willing to offer its experience, its technology, and of course, also to count on local talent.”
And taking advantage of the case of young Lautaro, they announced that “very soon you will hear about some competitions that we hope many kids from Concordia and teachers will also join.”
