·The laboratory is designed to create an environment that integrates real-world challenges, interactive educational content, video projection systems, 3D printing, and STEM engineering kits.

Aiming to contribute to the strengthening of the quality of education in various regions of the country, Primax Colombia joined the Computadores Para Educar program of the Ministry of Information Technologies and Communications (MinTIC) to deliver a STEM educational innovation laboratory and portable equipment that will benefit more than 3200 students in the municipalities of Galapa, Coello, Girón, La Dorada, Facatativá, and Cartagena.

Through its initiative “Energizing Dreams,” the multilatina retail fuel company seeks to promote educational innovation, with access, use, and appropriation of technology in educational institutions in various regions of Colombia. This year, the project includes the donation of an Educational Innovation Laboratory equipped with cutting-edge technologies and designed to enhance the STEM educational approach (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). This laboratory creates a complete environment that integrates real-world challenges, interactive educational content, video projection systems, 3D printing, and STEM engineering kits.

«At Primax, we see quality education as the fundamental pillar that will allow us to move towards a more just and equitable society. As a company, we will continue to develop these types of initiatives that allow us to mobilize those populations that need it most, with social investment projects that seek to positively transform our communities and provide tools that contribute to strengthening the learning of more students throughout Colombia,” emphasized Juan José Martínez, president of Primax Colombia.

The Energizing Dreams project also aims to enrich the learning process of children and young people in the country, while contributing to reducing digital gaps and strengthening academic training processes in these communities, facilitating access for those who do not have a connection or an adequate device to do so.
