Programs
Every year we carry out a series of programs for small businesses and entrepreneurs.
Lanzando
The Lanzando program's focus is to provide education, training, and create economic networks and job opportunities in San Jose.
We have carried out this program since 2020 in conjunction with the Leavey School of Business of the University of Santa Clara, through its MOBI Institute and the Ignatian Center.
