Social Services

We have participated in several social events, including the 2009 Christmas party for abandoned children “Hogarcito del Niño Abandonado” in Ciudad Quesada. In the activity gifts are given to children and you get a chance to bring joy and spend time with them.

With Local Universities

Our close relationship with local Universities including Tecnológico de Costa Rica, has allowed the interaction between students from several Computer Engineering career courses, with our engineers.

Part of Avantek's contribution with local Universities, include the following activities:

  • Free Seminars and Workshops
  • Technology Fairs
  • Academic Projects
  • Internship Projects

Also, some of our collaborators also work as part-time professors in the local Universities, giving a fresh perspective and bringing "real life" expertise into the class room.
