Business Administration students who join the Avanza research group will have the opportunity to delve into the research areas of organizational and regional development, organizational and regional studies, entrepreneurship and business development, and business historiography.

The Avanza research group is an opportunity to delve deeper into knowledge without the constraints of a classroom, a place where the aim is to instill in each young person the desire for research in support of collective development, where diverse opinions are valid, immersed in respect and the construction of values.

"It moves towards building a better country, starting from our regional context without neglecting globality," explained María Cristina Velásquez Ardila, Lead Teacher of the Avanza Research Seedbed.

It is worth noting that the Avanza seedbed emerged in 2013 and belongs to the Arado research group, has participated in different research meetings at the national and international level and has been selected three times among the best speakers at the RedColsi International Meeting of Research Seedbeds.
