According to the official, the lighting division of the company carried out awareness activities among which the lighting of public and private buildings, as well as roads and icons of the city, stands out. In addition to giving talks at different universities and agreeing alliances with health centers to promote mammograms with preferential prices.
Precisely, the Bicentennial Viaduct, the building of the Ministry of Economy, the Bicentennial Towers in Toluca and the Philips Corporate Building, are part of the properties that could be illuminated with pink LED light.
