Raúl Katz

Raúl Katz is a notable academic and expert in business strategy and telecommunication, currently serving as the Director of Business Strategy Research at the Columbia Institute of Tele-Information. He co-authored a recent study by the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (CEPAL) that highlights the alarming lag of Latin America in artificial intelligence (AI) investment. Katz emphasizes the urgent need for Latin American countries to adopt AI in their industries, especially given that over 95% of regional businesses are small to medium-sized and lack the resources for technological advancement. His insights advocate for increased investment in technology institutes to support businesses in transitioning to AI-driven processes.
