Kapital Bank, the country’s first bank, and the National
Aviation Academy of Azerbaijan have announced the launch of a new
partnership. The cooperation was officially formalized through the
signing of a memorandum the day before.


The memorandum provides for the implementation of joint
internship programs, involvement of bank specialists in students’
academic and research activities, development of joint curricula,
as well as the organization of training sessions, scientific
conferences, and educational events on various topics.


Opening the event with a welcoming address, First Vice-rector of
the National Aviation Academy, Adalat Samadov, briefed the guests
on the Academy’s activities, organizational structure, and stages
of development. Subsequently, Vice-Rector Gulnara Ahmedova spoke
about the contributions of the Academy’s Rector, Academician Arif
Pashayev, to the development of Azerbaijani science, particularly
in the field of civil aviation.


In his remarks, Chief Executive Officer of the Bir ecosystem and
Kapital Bank, Farid Huseynov, emphasized that cooperation with the
Academy strengthens the bank’s future-oriented strategic
vision.


“The memorandum we signed today elevates our partnership to a
new level. We want your students, as future professionals, to fully
benefit from the opportunities offered by our ecosystem, our
internship programs, and real-life projects,” he noted.







A memorandum of cooperation was signed during the event between
the Education Development Fund and the National Aviation Academy.
Under the agreement, the Academy joined the TələbəPlus project. The
TələbəPlus initiative was launched last year based on a memorandum
signed between Kapital Bank, the Education Development Fund, and
the international payment technology company Visa.


The project offers students a wide range of digital
opportunities, including participation in social initiatives,
access to discounts at hundreds of partner stores, the ability to
monitor card expenses through the Birbank mobile application, and
other digital services.


Speaking about the project aimed at improving young people’s
financial literacy, Chairman of the Board of the Education
Development Fund, Nijat Mammadli, stated that the primary goal of
TələbəPlus is to support students, enhance their social well-being,
and create favorable conditions that allow them to devote more time
to their studies. According to him, with the National Aviation
Academy joining the initiative, the number of participating higher
education institutions has reached 27, while the number of student
beneficiaries has exceeded 200 000.
