Proman sponsors comics on Prof Julien

The Proman Group is sponsoring a new comic book series on the life of energy guru Professor Kenneth Julien highlighting his life and achievements.

Dr Euric Bobb, chairman of Methanol Holding Trinidad Limited, a subsidiary of the Proman Group, announced the partnership on behalf of Proman, last month, at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers TT conference to honour Julien.

“Professor Julien’s impact on Trinidad and Tobago has been fundamental and we must ensure that our current and future generations understand the role he has played in shaping our country," Bobb said.

The comic book series was commissioned by the Energy Chamber of TT and will be produced by the Heroes Foundation.

“This publication, the 11th from the Foundation, is 100 per cent locally produced and uses sequential art storytelling in an inspirational and educational fashion. We look forward to this partnership and wish the chamber and the foundation the very best with this venture,” Bobb said.

The Heroes Foundation aims to inspire young people to be proactive citizens and to become positive change agents in their areas of influence, creating positive change at both the community and national levels.

Najette Abraham, CEO of the Heroes Foundation, said, “I am extremely pleased that the Proman Group has agreed to be a main sponsor of this publication, to ensure that the professor's remarkable story is shared in a relevant and meaningful way to the most important demographic of tomorrow's society–the youth of this nation.”
