ENIndian Ambassador’s visit to UPCH
On April 5th, the Indian Ambassador to Peru, Mr. Vishvas Sapkal, visited the central campus of the University with the aim of exploring opportunities for academic collaboration between the two institutions.
Dr. Castañeda opened the meeting with a warm welcome to Ambassador Sapkal, providing an overview of the Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia (UPCH) and its objectives for the year 2050. He expressed a strong interest in strengthening cooperation ties with Indian higher education institutions, particularly in key areas such as technology, innovation, and research.During the visit, the Ambassador met with university authorities and presented several proposals to foster bilateral collaboration. These proposals included:
- Strengthening capabilities through scholarships.
- Sharing knowledge of traditional medicine between Peru and India.
- Exploring joint projects in biotechnology and entrepreneurship.
- Managing patents.
- Promoting Indian culture.
We believe that this meeting not only marks the beginning of a fruitful relationship between UPCH and India but also sets the stage for robust bilateral collaboration that will undoubtedly benefit our Herediana community for generations to come.
