Honduras is one of the fastest growing countries in the world, according to the UN

Ginebra, Suiza

EEUU, Suiza y Reino Unido son por este orden los best landscapes for new technologies and emerges as artificial intelligence (IA) or the big data, following an index presented by Jews from Latin American nations, with Brazil and Chile in the cape, occupying discrete positions, while Honduras and other Central American nations are in college when it comes to technological advances

Brazil is at the moment 41 in a classification of 158 economies developed by the Conference of the UN on Trade and Development (Unctad), where Chile occupies the 49th position, Mexico the 57th, Costa Rica the 61st, Argentina the 65th and Panama the 67th, being the most Latin American nations.

In the cola of the region are Nicaragua (which occupies the 125th place in the global index), Honduras (122º), Bolivia (116º) and El Salvador (106), while Colombia is 78ª, Peru 89ª and Venezuela la 99ª.

VEA: Between cautela and recelo, Latin America tends to turn into classes

In the first places economic distances such as Korea of ​​the South (seventh position), Germany (novena), France (13ª), Japan (18ª) or Spain (21), while China and India, lead in research and development, are on page 25 and 43, respectively, due to deficiencies in telecommunications.

The classification is elaborated among five variables: research and development in new technologies, state of the local telecommunications industry, capacity for the new sectors, financing facilities in them and general overview of these industries.

The index is part of an information in which the United has analyzed only the future of the IA and the maneuver of large data bases, including sectors such as the Internet of Things, the blockchain, the 5G speeches, the 3D printing , robotics, drones, genetic editing, nanotechnology and photovoltaic energy.

It is estimated that these sectors constitute a market of 350,000 million dollars in 2018, which means that in this decade the number will increase by 10 to 3.2 billion dollars, (of them, 1.5 billion on the Internet of Things and 500,000 million in robotics).

The organization has been subverting with its study that the new technologies are increasing the economic gap between developed and developing countries, as has been seen since the successive industrial revolutions periodically change the basics of the economy.

“It is fundamental that countries in disarray do not share the oil of vanguard technologies, while the opposite is profound with more disparities,” summed up the presentation by Unctad Secretary-General Isabelle Durant, who told companies and companies better preparation to reduce the breakage.

It also recalls that together with the huge opportunities offered by these sectors, there are huge challenges, such as the risk that automation will reduce workloads on a large scale, while reducing labor costs.

The study has taken care of the fact that the goblins have a fundamental mandate to heal the bed of the technologies, especially in the creation of a proprietary proposition and “guarantee that the benefits of these technologies are shared by all”.
