Abstract

The key to solving collective problems is collaboration and teamwork. In this context, most of humanity's exceptional inventions and ideas have emerged not from a single mind, but from collective thinking. Thus, strategic alliances between university research groups seek to promote the formation and strengthening of academic and research networks for the transfer and generation of new knowledge in order to solve current challenges. This not only represents a benefit and strengthening for the academic community, but also gives scientific, technological, economic, social, and cultural relevance to the nation.
