Dynamics of mobilization and professional development in Hondurans formally employed abroad Universidad Tecnológica Centroamericana - UNITEC - (HN), Honduras The migration of professionals, known as "brain drain," represents a growing phenomenon with significant implications for developing countries, particularly Honduras. This qualitative study aimed to analyze the experiences of young Honduran professionals who have migrated abroad for formal employment opportunities, examining how this mobility contributes to their professional development and human capital utilization, as well as the impact on their country of origin. Through semi-structured interviews, it was identified that education in Honduras provided a foundation, but it was the experience abroad that allowed for significant human capital enrichment, with the acquisition of new competencies in dynamic environments. Motivations for migration are multifactorial, including the search for better working conditions, professional development, and quality of life, in contrast to the scarcity of opportunities and low wages in Honduras. The impact is ambivalent: while migrants experience personal and professional growth and contribute through remittances, the direct application of their enriched human capital for Honduras's development is limited due to the lack of return plans and persistent conditions in the country. 10:48am - 10:56am
Bibliometric Analysis of University–Industry Technology Transfer in Carbon Capture and Utilization Technologies: Trends and Perspectives Universidad Tecnológica del Perú S.A.C. - (PE), Perú University–industry technology transfer plays a strategic role in advancing carbon capture and utilization (CCU) technologies to meet global decarbonization and sustainability goals. However, significant gaps persist in academia–industry collaboration, especially in Latin America, where joint solution development is still limited. This study analyzes scientific trends, key actors, and emerging perspectives on technology transfer applied to CCU through a bibliometric mapping of 132 Scopus-indexed publications from 1996 to 2025. Using Bibliometrix and VOSviewer, the study explores co-authorship networks, thematic evolution, and institutional distribution. Results show a steady increase in publications since 2010, peaking in 2024, with major contributions from China, the United States, Belgium, and the United Kingdom. Dominant research areas include energy, engineering, and environmental sciences, while frequently used keywords are technology transfer, carbon dioxide, and carbon capture. The thematic analysis reveals a shift from technical approaches toward more integrative frameworks centered on sustainability, international cooperation, and intellectual property. Although the field has reached considerable technical maturity, further development of collaborative networks and institutional mechanisms is critical to accelerating the global implementation of low-carbon technologies. 10:56am - 11:04am
Impact of ERP systems on process automation and technological performance in the agro-industrial sector of SMEs in Peru. Universidad Tecnológica del Perú S.A.C. - (PE), Perú Organizations currently face critical operational challenges due to the lack of automation in internal processes, which affects their efficiency and adaptability. In this context, the implementation of ERP systems is presented as a strategic solution. This study aims to guide Peruvian agro-industrial SMEs towards improving their efficiency and competitiveness in a dynamic environment through the use of ERP systems. A systematic evaluation of 627 articles obtained from a database such as Scopus, Scielo, Redalyc and Ebscohost was carried out, of which 36 studies managed to meet the established inclusion parameters. The findings indicate that ERP systems positively impact process automation and the technological performance of SMEs, optimizing information management, reducing operating costs and strengthening internal interaction through data centralization. However, barriers such as lack of financing and training were identified. In conclusion, ERP systems are essential tools to face the operational and technological challenges of the agro-industrial sector. User training and management support are key factors for successful implementation, highlighting the need to overcome current limitations to maximize benefits and enhance greater competitiveness in the technological age. 11:04am - 11:12am
Relationship between limiting factors and Disaster Risk Management in the city of Piura, 2025 Universidad Tecnológica del Perú S.A.C. - (PE), Perú There is an urgent need to clarify how Disaster Risk Management is implemented, as well as to assess certain conditions that hinder such management and fail to reduce the vulnerability of communities to sudden extreme weather events. The purpose is to determine and evaluate the relationship between limiting factors on disaster risk management in the city of Piura during the year 2025. Through basic research, gathering empirical data and enriching it with scientific evidence, we combine features of descriptive and correlational studies, with observation and analysis as the central technique. To this end, a non-probability sampling was used, selecting professionals with varied experience and administering a questionnaire to 110 engineers associated with the departmental risk management system. Among the findings, specialists agree that these factors exert a direct and significant influence on the development of Disaster Risk Management. Furthermore, all participants point out the lack of a genuine preventive culture, which weakens the organizational structure and the timely reaction capacity of our Disaster Risk Management 11:12am - 11:20am
Innovation in school coexistence management as a key factor in the quality of public education services Universidad César Vallejo - (PE), Perú Abstract–This research aimed to determine the influence of school coexistence management on the quality of educational services in public schools. The study followed a quantitative approach with an explanatory scope and a non-experimental, cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 113 teachers from public institutions in Metropolitan Lima, selected through non-probabilistic sampling. The data collection technique used was a survey, applied through two valid and reliable questionnaires: one designed to assess school coexistence management across four dimensions, and another adapted from the SERVQUAL model to measure the perceived quality of educational services. The results confirmed the general hypothesis (GH), showing a positive and significant relationship between effective management of school coexistence and the quality of educational service (R = 0.535; R² = 0.286; p < 0.001). Specifically, it was found that approximately 28.6% of the variability in perceived quality can be explained by how coexistence is managed within the educational institution. In conclusion, innovating in the management of school coexistence through effective leadership, active participation of the educational community, and a socio-emotional approach significantly contributes to improving service quality in the public sector. Keywords-- school coexistence, educational quality, leadership, school management, educational service. 11:20am - 11:28am
Valorization of Passiflora ligularis Shells for the Eco‑Friendly Production of Zinc- and Copper-Oxide Nanoparticles 1Universidad Tecnológica del Perú S.A.C. - (PE), Perú; 2Universidad Nacional Agraria La Molina - (PE) Passiflora ligularis (granadilla) is widely cultivated in tropical regions across the Americas. Its consumption generates waste, such as peels, that are typically discarded. In line with the principles of the circular economy, this study explores the green synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles using granadilla shell extract, with potential applications in antimicrobial treatments and in the remediation of water contaminated with heavy metals or textile dyes. ZnO, CuO, and mixed Zn-Cu oxide nanoparticles were synthesized via an eco-friendly coprecipitation method, using the peel extract as a natural complexing and capping agent. The nanoparticles were characterized by electron diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and infrared spectroscopy to determine their crystalline structure, morphology, size, aggregation state, and elemental composition. The nanoparticles obtained were ultra-small (3-5 nm), with low crystallinity. ZnO exhibited a hexagonal wurtzite structure, while CuO showed a monoclinic phase. The mixed Zn-Cu oxide displayed a Zn:Cu atomic ratio of approximately 1:3, corresponding to the formula Zn0.25Cu0.75O. The results suggest that granadilla shells are a viable green resource for synthesizing metal oxide nanoparticles with high specific surface areas, making them promising candidates for environmental and antimicrobial applications. 11:28am - 11:36am
