Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In case you are not aware of, a diverse consumer market of more than 550 million people live in Latin America! These people, we all call Latinos, live, work and spend money, just south of the U.S. Border! However, I am not talking about Mexico, although is included, but there are many other countries, territories, islands and protectorates in the Latin American Region that await for your business. Within this huge market, there is hunger and demand for American and Foreign goods, technology, know-how and services. You might know the existence of plenty multilateral and bilateral free-trade agreements between U.S. and many Latin American countries, that are designed to offer your business a competitive edge over other European and Asian rivals. These trade agreements should propel you to enter or expand your business in Latin American. You need to know, that Free trade agreements help you compete on prices, quality, as well as offering prompt delivery of your goods and services to these markets. I have witnessed over my 20 years of traveling to the region, how U.S. technology, management, know-how, goods, and services from a wide range of industries have contributed significantly to the growth of Latin American economies. Countries like Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Brazil and Costa Rica, no name a few, actively solicit foreign trade investments from American companies. Another benefit to these trade agreements is consumer and industrial products find their way to markets and many factories are settled in Latin America to promote business and employment opportunities. Many countries of Latin America, now, enjoy political, government and economic stability unseen in past years. I want to emphasize that you can view the Latin American market as a conglomeration of markets, people, language, religions, economy, laws, cultures, and currencies that all may seem similar, but each country is very unique and different to deal with. Now you can learn from experience and existing resources How to go about doing successful business in the region! Lets get started!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Latin American journalism is currently experiencing some important transformations, with potential changes to how news is produced, shared, financed and consumed. This book provides a comprehensive overview of current journalism in Latin America, contextualized by global literature and regional empirical evidence. It is an important addition to our understanding of digital journalism and a must-read for those interested in journalism in Latin America." Dr. Vanessa de Macedo Higgins Joyce, Texas State University, USA This book explores innovative approaches to digital and data journalism in Latin America, brought by both legacy media and newcomers to the industry, with the purpose of examining this changing media landscape. As part of the Global South, Latin America has shown significant influence in the promotion of data and digital technologies applied to journalism in recent years. In this region, news entrepreneurs are becoming an essential source of innovation in news production, circulation, and distribution. The book considers news media, particularly in Latin America, as an open set of practices intertwined in the evolution of technology. It discusses the transformation of the Latin American news media ecosystem and considers how it has shaped the industry despite local differences. The study fills a significant gap in academic scholarship by addressing the multiple external factors, mainly political and economic, which have contributed to the relative lack of studies on the patterns of journalism in this region. Ramón Salaverría is Associate Dean of Research at the School of Communication, University of Navarra, Spain, where he heads the Digital News Media Research Group. Author of over 200 scholarly publications, his research focuses on digital journalism and media convergence, both in national and international comparative studies. Mathias-Felipe de-Lima-Santos is a researcher at the University of Navarra, Spain, under the JOLT project, a Marie Skłodowska-Curie European Training Network funded by the European Commission's Horizon 2020. Previously, he was a Visiting Researcher at the Queensland University of Technology, Australia. He researches changing journalistic practice with a particular focus on business models, data, and novel technologies.

Download or read book Innovation and Inclusion in Latin America written by Alejandro Foxley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-06 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that Latin America must confront two main challenges: greater innovation to increase productivity, and greater inclusion to incorporate more of the population into the benefits of economic growth. These two tasks are interrelated, and both require greater institutional capacity to facilitate both innovation and inclusion. Most countries in Latin America are struggling to escape what economists label “the middle income trap.” While much if not all of the region has emerged from low income status, neither growth nor productivity has increased sufficiently to enable Latin America to narrow the gap separating it from the world’s most developed economies. Although income inequality has diminished across much of the region in recent years, social vulnerability remains widespread and institutional weaknesses continue to plague efforts to achieve equitable development. This volume identifies lessons that can be learned and adapted from experiences within the region and in East Asia, where the middle income trap has largely been avoided. This book is the result of a collaborative project undertaken by American University’s Center for Latin American & Latino Studies (CLALS) and the Corporation for Latin American Studies (CIEPLAN) in Chile, with financial support from the Inter-American Development Bank’s Office of Strategic Planning and Development Effectiveness.

Book excerpt: The definition of technology transfer varies depending on the context and on the approach. Taking a more entrepreneurial approach, technology transfer refers to the ways and means through which companies, individuals and organizations acquire technology or know-how from third parties, whether such technology is IPR-protected or not. In this sense, technology transfer plays a relevant role in the growth of companies. It allows EU SMEs to find a way to exchange or acquire high quality research and cutting-edge technology with outstanding research organisations. In the same way, companies which have created new technologies may find in this transfer an opportunity to recover the investment made, gain a higher reputation, royalties or the chance to have an economic impact on the marketplace. Technology transfer also takes place via training and education. This is crucial for transfer of know-how. It includes training of university graduates, exchanges of qualified staff, joint research projects. This is as important as transfer via buying or licensing IP rights. Many Latin American countries have excellent research organisations, conducting high quality research which may be of interest to European SMEs. On the other hand, Latin American companies aiming to reach higher rates of productivity, reduce the technology gap or production costs often reach out to Europe to demand the latest technologies. In order to promote this high-tech exchange, technological cooperation between Europe and Latin America has intensified over the past years. The European Commission has stimulated cooperation through various initiatives, such as: opening up the participation of entities from Latin American countries in the EU's Framework Programs for R&D (mainly FP6, FP7 and Horizon 2020); establishing Enterprise Europe Network Contact points in the region (in Brazil, Chile, and Mexico); and, last but not least, through the so called 'Missions for Growth'. Between 2011 and 2017, the EC high-level representatives and EU industry representatives (including SMEs) visited several American countries (Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, United States, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Panama and Paraguay) to renew and ensure a strong political relation with the EU and to strengthen the cooperation in strategic fields, such as industrial innovation, raw materials, standards and market integration, SMEs, space, sustainable construction and tourism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the eyes of many, China's unprecedented economic rise has brought nothing but good news to the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean. Indeed, China's growing appetite for primary products, and the ability of Latin America to supply that demand, has played a role in restoring growth in Latin America, both in the run-up to the global financial crisis and in its aftermath. The dragon in the room that few are talking about is the fact that China is simultaneously out-competing Latin American manufacturers in world markets—so much so that it may threaten the ability of the region to generate long-term economic growth. One of the authors' key claims is that China is rapidly building the technological capabilities necessary for industrial development, whereas Latin American tech innovation and sophistication lags considerably. At a deeper level, the findings in this volume imply that China's road to globalization, one that emphasizes gradualism and coordinated macro-economic and industrial policies, is far superior to the "Washington Consensus" route taken by most Latin American nations, particularly Mexico.

Download or read book Promoting Silicon Valleys in Latin America written by Luciano Ciravegna and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The spectacular economic performance of China, East Asia and India during the last ten years has ignited some profound changes in the world economy. The share of global demand, investments, trade and production of the traditional industrialized powers, the US, Europe and Japan, has gradually yet continuously declined. This rise of China also has implications for Latin America. On the one hand, booming Chinese demand for raw materials and food has sustained the economic performance of Latin America during the last decade. On the other hand, the competitiveness of China and as a hub for advanced manufacturing is threatening Latin America's attempt to diversify its economy from its dependence on the export of natural resource-based goods. Most Latin American countries are not however waiting passively for their economies to become ever more reliant on high prices for food, minerals and oil. Leveraging the economic and political stability that they achieved during the last decades, many countries in the region, such as Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica and Uruguay, are attempting to capture the growing market for knowledge intensive products and services by breeding their own Silicon Valleys. This book discusses the promotion of ICT clusters in Latin America by analyzing the development of the Costa Rican cluster in particular, an often celebrated case of successful policy in the region. Costa Rica, a small country traditionally known for its coffee and wildlife, managed to build an information technology cluster within ten years, becoming the leading producer of ICT per capita in Latin America. Studying the Costa Rican case provides a solid starting point for understanding the challenges of building ICT clusters in Latin America.
