P2K (formerly Precision 2000), where Ms. Obregon is co-founder and CEO, started in 2017 with $40,000 set aside to be doled out in $10,000-per-year increments over four years to Colombian students that had gained admission to Tech’s master of science program in building construction and facility management. She later tacked on another $10,000.
Now, Precision 2000 is doubling its initial contribution, laying out another $50,000 over the next year for the fellowship.
