TICAL’s current and potential members are the directors of information technologies from universities and research centres that are part of the national networks connected to RedCLARA (it is also open to university authorities and academics and researchers in the field), and representatives from RedCLARA’s corporate member organisations and companies (the latter are incorporated through an invitation).
In 2014 the TICAL Community defined the following dominant themes:
The TICAL Conference is the space where the TICAL community gets together face to face in order to be nourished by the experiences, initiatives and knowledge presented by experts from universities (mostly) in the region, and contribute with meaningful and unprecedented solutions for all fields of university work from the area of information and communication technologies (ICT).
TICAL2014 | Cancun, Mexico, 26 to 28 May 2014 The TICAL Conference is also an ideal space for those companies and organisations that wish to obtain frontline information in the field of ICT in Latin American universities. Apart from introducing their services and products in the commercial exhibition organised as part of the Conference, their representatives can participate in all the activities in the Conference’s programme, particularly in the panel discussions and working meetings, which enables them to learn first-hand about the interests and issues in this field, as well as the projects that the universities are implementing in the area of ICT. They can also organise demonstration sessions which enhance their relationship with the academic community. For the members of the TICAL community, this relationship with ICT companies is highly positive, in that it gives them the chance to learn about tendencies, products and services and compare the different alternatives offered by each provider.
Here RedCLARA clearly shows its role as articulator and its experience always in the technological border. If you are a company representative and wish to participate in future versions of the TICAL Conference, please contact us in the following email and we will get back to you. Marcela Larenas

Thematic meetings are defined as collaboration activities of the directors of technology who are part of the TICAL community; in this sense these meetings aim to provide participants with an opportunity for revision and discussion about topics which have been defined as relevant within the community.

Repository: As one of TICAL’s objectives is to promote exchange and establish work relationships between the directors of information and communication technologies from Latin America, so they can share experiences and interests in areas related to their work, this repository was created to include all the papers presented at the annual TICAL Conferences. The papers incorporated into this repository will have security restrictions so that they cannot be modified as agreed with the authors. This way, these papers will be available for visualisation only and it won’t be possible to edit them since they will be uploaded in PDF format.
