His goal is research on projects related to Google GEO technologies, specially the Liquid Galaxy. The Laboratory was founded in 2010 by Andreu Ibanez, a well known Google evangelist in Spain, and has as mantra to work in Open Source code with University students.
The Liquid Galaxy LAB is also a community of old students, mentors, professors, coming from Lleida, Spain and the world.
Different students pass by the LAB every year, about 30, doing his work practices, end of career and master projects, even we have some PhD working with us.
More than a hundred students have pass by our installations, where 19 of them have also obtained a Google Summer of Code scholarship.
