<\/p>\nThe Mar\u00eda Cano University Foundation joins the group of Higher Education Institutions with invention patents. For the first time in the history of Mar\u00eda Cano, the Superintendency of Industry and Commerce – SIC, grants her the registration of 2 invention patents, jointly with the Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana, and the researcher Fanny Valencia Legarda recognition as an inventor.<\/p>\n
Patent registrations had previously been granted to the UPB, but now what the SIC does is accept the registration application of Mar\u00eda Cano as co-owner of the industrial property rights and Fanny Valencia as inventor. The patents subject to the granting of the registration refer to two inventions: sports glove and sports suit, products derived from the research project \u00abBiomechanical Analysis of Sports Performance and Clothing in gymnasts of the Antioquia gymnastics league\u00bb, carried out in a collaborative way between the Clothing and Textile Design research groups, by the UPB, and Fisioter, Medell\u00edn headquarters, by Mar\u00eda Cano, with Fanny Valencia as co-researcher, who obtains the inventor designation, granted by the governing body of industrial property in Colombia.<\/p>\n
It is important to highlight that patents are one of the main indicators with which the development of countries is measured and with which HEIs are valued in world rankings and they have a great weight in the measurement model of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation, as a result of activities to generate new knowledge, for the classification of research groups and the recognition of researchers. In fact, invention and utility model patents are the products with the greatest overall weight in the measurement model and ours, from the outset, because they are granted, have type A quality and, to the extent, they enter into a process of commercialization or licensing to third parties, will become TOP quality products with the impact that this will have for the group and for the researcher.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the same way, it is shared with the university community that the Board of Directors of Compa\u00f1eros de las Am\u00e9rica, Antioquia Chapter has expressed recognition to Mar\u00eda Cano in the 2020 Assembly for the volunteerism and gift of people that the Institution has demonstrated, through work of the rector Hugo Alberto Valencia Porras and the Director (e) of Internationalization, Mar\u00eda Camila Mar\u00edn Herrera.<\/p>\n
They highlight: \u201cBy volunteers like you, Companions of the Americas has fulfilled its missionary purpose of Connect, Serve, and transform lives and has been recognized in the Americas as the most important Volunteer Network in the Western Hemisphere. We hope to have you on the Board very soon with your important ideas and contributions for the good of our members and maintaining the leadership of our chapter \u201d.<\/p>\n
