Congreso Internacional de Tecnología y Ciencia Aplicada (CITCA)

The CITCA (Center for Information Technology and Communication) is an innovative technological platform designed to promote scientific and technological research through the comprehensive management of journal and conference articles, as well as outreach and scientific posters focused on the social impact of knowledge. This development strengthens the scientific and technological vocation of researchers at the national and international levels, contributing to the positioning of the National Technological Institute of Mexico (TecNM) as a leader in the promotion of applied science.

Its modular and adaptable architecture allows for efficient and automated management of the various stakeholders involved in the conference:

• Researchers submitting articles,
• Editors and managers of scientific content,
• Academic reviewers,
• And participants such as speakers, workshop leaders, and attendees.

Furthermore, the platform automates key administrative processes, such as document validation, issuance of certificates with digital signatures, payment management, and the coordination of academic and logistical activities, guaranteeing transparency, traceability, and institutional efficiency.

The development and implementation of this technological solution has substantially contributed to the fulfillment of the strategic objectives of TecNM and CENIDET, highlighting the following achievements:

• Consolidation of an international multidisciplinary forum for the presentation of research, technological innovations, and cutting-edge developments with a humanistic and social focus.
• Promotion of scientific and technological research through the creation, review, and publication of articles with social impact, strengthening international academic collaboration.
• Encouragement of interest and participation among researchers in the fields of humanities, science, and technology.
• Promotion of the dissemination of scientific knowledge among national and international academic communities.
• Protection of the intellectual property of the developments generated through registration with the National Institute of Copyright (INDAUTOR).
