NEW Partnership with Petre Shotadze Tbilisi Medical Academy! Dear Friends and Colleagues, I am proud to announce Project IMG’s new partnership with Tbilisi Medical Academy—a collaboration that reinforces our mission to democratize medical education and ensure that all students, regardless of their socioeconomic background, have access to the opportunities they need to succeed. For far too long, access to medical education has been limited to the privileged few rather than being accessible to all. At Project IMG, we believe in breaking down barriers so that every aspiring physician can pursue their dream of becoming a physician. Our message is resonating, and with each new partnership—like this one with Tbilisi Medical Academy—our movement gains momentum. Medical Schools around the world are recognizing the need for an inclusive, equitable approach to medical education and training, and we are honored to lead this charge. To the students and faculty of Tbilisi Medical Academy, welcome to our global community. Together, we will provide educational resources, clinical training, and mentorship opportunities that empower future physicians to make a meaningful impact. This is just the beginning. The world needs doctors, and together, we are ensuring that talent, not privilege, defines the future of medicine. In unity, Michael Hermosa - Partner
