We met Lubo, team leader of System and Solution support, based on SharePoint technologies. He told us about this modern and very flexible platform, that can cover a large range of business solutions. We met Ognian, an Android developer. We learned about some basic problems with the development of applications for this operation system We left very reluctantly with the conviction that for sure one day we would be happy to be part of such a company.
The main purpose of the event between Chance for the Children of Bulgaria foundation and BULPROS was to offer to the most outstanding talents a successful model for education, that is practise oriented. A model that is up to the modern technologies and trains young people to think and solve problems and work in a team.

We thank very much to the whole team of BULPROS for the given chance, for the professionalism and their readiness to support us shared Liliana Slavova, President of the Chance for the children of Bulgaria.
