We support universities with initiatives that enable them to advance social progress, connect with peers, adapt to societal demands, and strengthen their academic communities.
We foster a unique global network of university collaboration, unparalleled worldwide, through which we jointly offer and promote a diverse, up-to-date, and high-quality program portfolio. We have built a global network of over 1,100 universities, institutions, and organizations across 14 countries.
Academic institutions are engines of progress. We provide them with resources and opportunities for development and digitalization, helping them reach their full potential. At the same time, this network creates a unique space for collaboration that encourages shared learning through the exchange of experiences.
MetaRed: A collaborative ecosystem for joint work with Ibero-American universities focused on the challenges they face in areas such as digital transformation (MetaRed TIC), university entrepreneurship (MetaRed X), and sustainability and social responsibility (MetaRed ESG).
It has evolved into an international network of networks that strengthens institutional capabilities and expands the opportunities and horizons of universities. The universities themselves define, manage, and lead the development and evolution of MetaRed. This unique alliance allows them to share experiences, learn from experts, and address common challenges together.
