Santo Domingo.- El Instituto Tecnológico de Santo Domingo (INTEC) and Banco BHD signed the BHD Chair agreement at INTEC, the first program of keynote conferences of national and international experts in the business area of ​​a Dominican university.

The agreement, signed by Miguel J. Escala, rector of INTEC, and Luis E. Molina Achécar, president of the BHD, establishes that during three consecutive years the bank will donate US $ 25,000 annually to finance conferences on topics of economics, accounting, administration and marketing.

Escala, rector of INTEC.

For Banco BHD, financing this type of activity in a higher education institution such as INTEC is to contribute to the competitive improvement of the country.
