We provide a Community Blog where anyone can share projects or ideas. We also host innovation competitions throughout the year. The NetSquared Local groups, like the one you can set up, help bring local communities together offline to find out about the work happening locally, share ideas, learn together, and collaborate.

Each group has access to the the Meetup.com platform with all its functionality that allows members to join, share pictures and files, communicate in forums, email all members, and most importantly schedule events.)
The Guatemala-NetSquared group started in March of 2011. since our technology park, Campus Tec, also started recently in August, 2010. So far, we have been able to organize 11 meetings that deal with different topics of e-development: e-learning, e-government, e-commerce, e-incubation among others. (Please look at our past events in http://www.meetup.com/Guatemala-NetSquared-Meetup/events/past/ )

During lunch we had a visit from Mr. Alejandro de Leon from the Vice-President office gave us a very interesting demonstration of the new transparency portal of the Guatemalan Government, www.transparencia.gob.gt and we made arrangements for collaborating in future joint projects related to the clustering efforts reducing the digital gap in rural communities with the e-government agenda.

The final presentation was done by Mr. Luis Penados who is also part of the Campus Tec business incubator and he shared his ideas as to now the Silicon Valley strategy is being established in Guatemala.
