Financial education and entrepreneurship initiatives held in Paraguay and Chile

Familiar Casa de Bolsa held two educational sessions in Villarrica, Paraguay, on September 16 and 17. The first event, held at the Universidad Católica de Asunción, focused on the transition from savings to investment and the mechanics of the stock market. Led by President Rodolfo Gauto, the session aimed to provide university students with tools for informed financial decision-making and responsible management.

The second session, hosted at the Coopeduc auditorium, targeted local business leaders and entrepreneurs. Director Humberto Colmán presented an analysis of the macroeconomic environment, covering global, regional, and Paraguayan economic trends and perspectives.

In Chile, the Universidad Andrés Bello (UNAB) in Viña del Mar hosted the Expo Emprendedoras. Organized by the School of Accounting and Auditing as part of its Business Clinic, the event allowed six organizations from Villa Alemana to exhibit and sell manufactured products. The initiative serves as a practical learning circuit where students collect and analyze data from the participating businesses to develop management improvement proposals.
