Innovating in blockchain is now a safe, accessible, and sustainable opportunity for researchers, educators, and entrepreneurs in Latin America who want to turn their ideas into concrete solutions.
“Innovation with Purpose. When the Network Maximizes Its Impact” is the title of the virtual session to be held on September 9 at 15:00 GMT, serving as a prelude to the in-person Open Innovation Workshop, scheduled for November 10 in San José, Costa Rica, within the framework of the TICAL2025 conference.
On Monday, September 1, at 16:00 GMT, the BELLA II project—led by RedCLARA and co-funded by the European Union—together with LACNet, will hold the virtual launch of the Blockchain Testbed. This secure, regulated, and accessible infrastructure will enable universities, research centers, startups, and National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) across Latin America and the Caribbean to test, validate, scale, and deploy innovative solutions under real-world conditions, with controlled costs and specialized technical support.
The University Telemedicine Network (RUTE), an initiative of the National Education and Research Network of Brazil (RNP), will hold a series of four webinars on Quantum Technologies in Health between September and December 2025. The sessions are organized in partnership with the Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein (HIAE) and the Federal University of ABC (UFABC), with the support of RedCLARA and RUTE-ALC.
The international conference CARLA 2025, organized by the Advanced Computing System for Latin America and the Caribbean (SCALAC), has opened its official registration. Interested participants may register before September 8 to access the special early-bird fee.
How can data be transformed into action to address climate change and environmental challenges? This question guided RedCLARA’s presentation at AmeriGEO Week 2025, held in Bogotá, Colombia, from August 11 to 15. In the workshop “Data-Driven Environmental Intelligence: The Strategic Role of RedCLARA, Academic Networks, and Copernicus Use Cases,” participants learned how the region’s academic networks (RNIES) turn information into real solutions that improve research, environmental management, and decision-making, showing how important it is for different groups in the digital ecosystem to work together.
