Intel Colombia's office in Bogotá opened in 1997 to serve as the sales and support center for all of Colombia. It now serves a much greater region, including Perú, Ecuador and Venezuela, Central America and the Caribbean. Employees at this office provide world-class sales and support at the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), developer and end-user levels. Intel Colombia provides a strong foundation for the country's university education system through equipment donation and curriculum review. Bogotá, the capital of Colombia, is an ever-expanding city and one of the fastest-growing metropolitan areas in the country. It is a place of much contrast and diversity in both its landscape and culture.
