Sport group dedicated to discovering, developing, representing and projecting young football talent.
Proyecto Q was born from the professional careers of its founders in Argentine and Colombian football. Their experience as players in both countries made it possible to precisely identify the particularities of the region’s talent and to understand, from the inside, the conditions needed to develop it.
Building on that knowledge, we began creating opportunities for promising young players to be scouted by professional institutions. We coordinated trials at Argentine clubs, managed the transfer of players to Colombian teams and progressively built a network of relationships with coaching staff, executives and youth developers in both countries.
On that foundation, the project’s first formal structures were created: Fundacoofisam and Academia Santo, which today bring together more than 1,200 players in development. Adding our own club in Santa Marta consolidated the operation and expanded the reach of our work.
Today, Proyecto Q operates as a sport group with four specialized units, its own methodology and an active network of alliances with recognized institutions in international football.
Through its four specialized units, Proyecto Q is dedicated to discovering, developing, representing and projecting young football talent.
We work with more than 1,200 players between the ages of 4 and 17, organized into categories by age and development level. The 13-to-15 age range receives priority attention, as it is the key window for observation by professional clubs.
We identify players whose technical, physical and mental attributes match the demands of high performance. We work through evaluation camps, observation at partner clubs and the professional network built over years.
We guide each player’s career with a long-term, holistic vision, within the regulatory framework established by FIFA. We advise the player and their family at every stage, from the first professional opportunity to a consolidated career.
We extend our development work into settings where access to professional sport is limited. We scout talent in vulnerable communities and integrate those players into the group’s development structure.
Methodology is the project’s main differentiator. The entire development structure works under Argentine football principles, coordinated by an Argentine head coach who oversees the planning of every age group.
The development process spans ages 4 to 17, organized into stages. The 13-to-15 range receives priority attention, as it is the period when professional clubs carry out their main scouting and signing processes.
Our goal is the complete development of the player: so that, upon reaching a professional stage, the athlete has the technical, physical and mental preparation needed to sustain it.
Regular assessment of each player’s technical, physical and tactical performance.
Management of trials, transfers and introductions at partner clubs.
Athletic development requires a stable support system around the player.
Specialists in performance sport accompany every stage.
Our players today compete at:
Every path is the verifiable result of a development process that is planned and sustained over time.
Proyecto Q operates within a network of agreements with leading institutions in Argentine and Colombian football. These alliances provide the operational backbone for scouting camps, evaluation stages and professional projection.
We work under a collaborative model with each player’s clubs and academies of origin. We recognize that a talent’s early development is the result of the work of multiple institutions, and we structure our operation to reward that contribution.
When a player joins the group’s development structure from another club or academy, a formal agreement is established with the institution of origin. Beyond the training rights set by regulation, it includes an economic share of any future transfer. The percentage is agreed case by case —typically between 10% and 30%— and documented in a framework agreement between the parties.
Talent is identified at its club of origin, brought into Proyecto Q’s development structure, elevated through professional methodology and projected toward a competitive market. Every link in that chain receives the economic recognition corresponding to its contribution to the player’s development.
Proyecto Q is led by two former professional players with careers in Argentine and Colombian football. This dual belonging is one of the group’s most important operational assets.
Our founders know the particularities of Colombian football from the inside, with deep roots in Santa Marta and an established presence at leading institutions in the country.
Active ties with coaching staff, sporting directors and agents at clubs in Argentina and Colombia, plus contacts at institutions in other markets.
The focus is on Argentina and Colombia, but the contact structure makes it possible to open paths to other international markets when a player’s profile justifies it.
Proyecto Q is led by two former professional players with careers built at clubs in Argentina and Colombia. The complementarity of both paths is one of the project’s central assets.
