“I hope the cooperation between the municipality of Bar and Punto 2012 will serve as a good example to other successful companies to take part in the improvement and creation of even better conditions for educating our young people,” said head administrator of the municipality of Bar, Zoran Radonjic.

“We are truly thrilled and humbled to have the opportunity to become part of the fabric of the future of the Meksiko students,” said Aaron Grego, CEO, Punto 2012. “It is our hope that this donation will help their academic futures and, as Bar is one of the first cities in the world to get its own Internet domain, we also hope that .BAR will become a part of everyday life for the citizens of Bar.”

“It is exactly this donation that shows that the friendship between Mexico and Montenegro is still lasting, despite the time and kilometers that stand between us,” said school headmaster Elda Dzankovic-Ibrisimovic. “The resources the school will be receiving over the next ten years will enable us to make planned investments into educational aids necessary for meeting the modern educational requirements. This event is also an invitation to all socially responsible individuals and organizations investing in our country to follow the example of Punto 2012 because by investing in education, we invest in ourselves and our future.”
