Havana, Oct 9 (ACN) The first online business forum on Information Technologies wound up in Havana as an excellent event that boosts bilateral academic, business and cooperation links between Cubans on the island and those residing abroad.

The Cuban embassies and consulates are open to cooperation in different sectors and offer Cubans abroad all the necessary information, the official noted.
