Colombia consolidates and expands its science, technology and innovation ecosystem with the linking of the National Academic Network of Advanced Technology - RENATA to BELLA II, the most important regional initiative in these areas, which seeks to reduce the digital divide between Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean.
