We are pleased to announce Cambia/The Lens and the Universidad De Colima have formed a strategic partnership to help accelerate innovation across Latin America!
As the first higher education institution in Mexico and Latin America to collaborate with The Lens, the Universidad De Colima will contribute to collective action by facilitating the localisation of the user interface into Spanish, translating support topics and developing training videos and support material in Spanish that are aimed at the research and innovation communities across Latin America.
The partnership was announced at a virtual launch event on March 3, 2022, and was introduced by the Rector of the Universidad De Colima, Professor Christian Jorge Torres Ortiz Zermeño and the Director of Outreach, Professor Óscar Javier Solorio Pérez.
Professor Solorio Pérez explained the collaboration involves two key aspects: 1) Access to data and tools on patents and the large body of online academic literature on the lens.org platform through an Institutional Toolkit, and 2) Universidad De Colima will become the strategic partner for the Spanish-speaking world; saying
"We are going to help Lens.org translate their interface into Spanish, but more importantly, we will help translate their training materials, both written and video content, that are available for Spanish-speaking countries." Professor Solorio Pérez
We are excited to be collaborating with Universidad De Colima and will be working closely with the team to produce content for the Spanish-speaking world to help enable innovation and collective action.
