History

The Foundation for the Scientific and Technological Promotion of Rosario and its Region (Roscytec) was founded in Rosario on April 28, 2003 by the CCT-Rosario (then Cerider), which is the regional delegation of Conicet in the city of Rosario. Its activity of administration and promotion of science is related and coordinated with those of research and development carried out by the institutes created by the Conicet in the different branches of knowledge, which lead the activity of the foundation. To the 6 original institutes, Instituto Rosario de Investigaciones en Ciencias de la Educación - IRICE -, Instituto de Biología Celular y Molecular de Rosario - IBR -, Instituto de Física Rosario - IFIR -, Instituto de Fisiología Experimental - IFISE -, Instituto de Química Rosario - IQUIR -, and Centro de Estudios Fotosintéticos y Bioquímicos - CEFOBI -, were added the institutes created later, Centro Internacional Franco-Argentino de Ciencias de la Información y Sistemas - CIFASIS -, Instituto de Inmunología Clínica y Experimental de Rosario - IDICER -, Instituto de Estudios Críticos en Humanidades - IECH -, Instituto de Investigaciones en Ciencias Agrarias de Rosario - IICAR -, Investigaciones Socio-históricas Regionales - ISHIR - and Centro Universitario Rosario de Investigaciones Urbanas y Regionales - CURDIUR -. 

Since its creation, its purpose has been to carry out works for the common good consisting in the promotion of scientific activity and technological innovation through the strengthening of the scientific-technological system and the link between it and the productive sector, as well as to promote and assist in all educational, scientific and technological activities that contribute to the development of Rosario and its area of influence.

The Roscytec Foundation, in its role as a Technological Linking Unit, under the terms of Law 23.877, seeks to facilitate the interaction between the organizations that make up the scientific and technological system and the public, productive and service sectors that demand the incorporation of knowledge.

As a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), the Roscytec Foundation has full legal capacity to acquire assets and incur obligations, and may enter into all kinds of legal acts directly or indirectly related to the fulfillment of its foundational purpose.

Its status as a Technological Linking Unit, from its origin to the present, naturally makes it an entity capable of acting in all areas of knowledge.

Also, as an NGO operating in the field of private law, it is in a position to assimilate and hire those specialists that are indispensable to carry out specific studies.

As an Administration Unit of public and private resources destined to support the execution of Research and Development activities, it has a solid institutional and administrative structure. As such, it is permanently audited by State Control Organisms and by the financing entities.

Mision
