As the bricklayers of tomorrow’s landscape, telecommunications companies are responsible for collaborating with all actors within the new technologies ecosystem to harness the full potential of the digital era.
Adopting new technologies in the pharmaceutical and healthcare space can reduce the incidence of chronic diseases, facilitate the early detection of serious illnesses, and help promote healthy habits among the population.
Artificial intelligence, virtual reality, gamification... the digital revolution offers diverse options to tackle issues too common in Latin American and Caribbean cities: heavy traffic, road accidents, and even not having enough coins to pay for your ride.
The rapid growth of telecommunications in Latin America and the Caribbean presents both an opportunity and a challenge for a sector capable of significantly contributing to GDP growth and enhancing productivity. However, the sector is constantly evolving, with persistent gaps in access.
High-capacity data connections may be the oil of the 21st century: a potential source of great wealth for countries that best exploit this resource. A great example of this potential is Paraguay, a landlocked country equidistant from the large economies of South America.
High-speed 5G Internet connections will help more remote work and information access, reducing emissions from cars and planes, and facilitate self-driving vehicles, leading to fewer accidents and shorter commutes, as well as the widespread adoption of smart buildings with less energy use.
