Technological Hub

Nestled in the verdant landscapes of western Honduras, Copán Ruinas is a town steeped in the rich history of the ancient Maya civilization. Renowned worldwide for its archaeological site, which features impressive ruins and an extensive collection of pre-Columbian artifacts, Copán Ruinas attracts scholars, historians, and tourists eager to delve into its storied past. The region is also famous for its coffee production, with local businesses cultivating and exporting some of the finest coffee beans, adding to the town's vibrant economy. Soon, it will also attract information technologists and expose cutting-edge technologies in rural areas.
