Mexico City, May 18-21, 2024

We would like to share with you our exciting trip to Mexico City, organized by AICO on the occasion of the fifty-second meeting of the Board of Directors of the Ibero-American Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry and Services.
This event coincided with the celebration of the sesquicentennial anniversary of CANACO CDMX, the oldest Chamber in Latin America, and the ninetieth anniversary of the Inter-American Commercial Arbitration Commission, CIAC, which added special significance to our participation.

The first evening we enjoyed a fantastic welcome cocktail party, where we were able to begin making valuable connections and prepare for the days ahead.
Our trip continued with a tour of the city, exploring historic sites such as Coyoacán and the Church of San Juan Bautista, followed by a cultural experience at the Coyoacán Market. This was a perfect prelude to what would be an enriching series of events.

We attended the official inauguration with speeches by important dignitaries, some of them being: José de Jesús Rodríguez Cárdenas, Francisco Herrero, Liliana Sánchez, Martí Batres Guadarrama, Miguel Torruco Marqués and Nathalie Desplas. Then focused on crucial topics such as artificial intelligence and disruptive technologies, highlighting a keynote lecture by Frédéric García. We participated in talks on nearshoring and renewable energies, with panelists such as Altagracia Gómez, Carla Medina and Ángel Asensio, who offered valuable perspectives on these emerging sectors. There was also a conservatory on the Ibero-American economic situation with important panelists such as Julián Domínguez, Larry Rubin, Víctor Pavón Villamayor and Vicente Gutiérrez Camposeco.

Advixy was present at this event to inform the Ibero-American world about the tax benefits of the Canary Islands, which represent an ideal gateway to expand business to Europe and Africa, and tohighlight how these advantages can facilitate the growth and internationalization of companies.

In addition to the business activities, this trip offered us the opportunity to learn more about the cultural aspects of Mexico and its rich tradition. These moments allowed us not only to better understand the business environment, but also to appreciate the deep cultural heritage that Mexico has to offer. We were also able to enjoy the amazing voice of José de Jesús Rodríguez Cárdenas, who delighted us with his music.

The last day focused on sustainability within the framework of the Agenda two thousand and thirty, with a panel that included several experts such as Ovidio Claros Polanco, Natalio Mario Grinman, Xavier Coronas, Roberto de la Torre, Mónica Conde and Alejandro Gómez Tamez, who referred to the regional economy. The day concluded with a splendid closing dinner, where we had the pleasure of celebrating the bonds forged and the knowledge acquired, framed by these significant anniversaries.

Thank you for following us on this journey and we hope we have inspired you to explore new opportunities across borders!

The last stretch of 2025 looks like a turning point for companies, governments and startups. In this analysis we explore how the economy is shaping up and which technology trends will set the course in Spain, the Canary Islands, Europe and Latin America, with a special focus on the role of artificial intelligence and the evolution of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

🌍 Economic outlook: Spain, the Canary Islands and Latin America

Spain faces the end of the year with optimism: the Bank of Spain forecasts GDP growth of 2.7% in 2025, driven by private consumption, productive investment and access to cheaper credit thanks to European funds.

In the Canary Islands, growth even exceeds the national average, at 2.8%. The archipelago is advancing along the path of digitalization and ecological transition, while consolidating employment and consumption. However, there is no shortage of challenges: the aging population, pressure on infrastructure and the shortage of skilled labor make a long-term strategy based on sustainability and territorial cohesion essential.

Inflation stabilized at around 2.5%, with more moderate food and energy prices. Even so, external factors such as US tariff policy and the volatility of international markets maintain some uncertainty on the horizon.

🇪🇺 Europe: slow but steady growth

In the Eurozone, the European Commission forecasts growth of 0.9% in 2025. Spain stands out as one of the countries with the best prospects, while large economies such as Germany and France face deeper structural adjustments. The Nordic countries, meanwhile, continue to set the pace in technological adoption.

Inflation continues to moderate, although energy could once again generate rallies. The European context points to stability, but with reduced margins for maneuvering.

🌎 Latin America: innovation accelerated by AI and fintech

The region is undergoing a true technological transformation: more than 85% of Latin American companies are already using artificial intelligence in some process, especially in sales, customer service and predictive analytics. Mexico is leading this wave, with a 965% growth in AI adoption between 2018 and 2024.

Startups in the region are betting big on fintech, insurtech, smart logistics and Web3, with generative AI taking center stage. The SaaS market is growing 28% annually, and global forecasts put the value of AI at more than $200 billion in the coming years.

🤖 Technology and AI: driving the future of business

In Europe, more than 40% of large companies already use artificial intelligence, with Spain as one of the most advanced countries. In Latin America, adoption has exploded in just a few years, growing by more than 900%.

The sectors that are betting the most on technological innovation include fintech, digital health, circular economy and AI on-demand services (AIaaS). Investment in these areas is not only being maintained, but is gaining strategic relevance.

🚀 Startups and new business models.

In Spain, three out of ten startups integrate AI into their daily operations. Biotechnology, circular economy, digital health and fintech are the most dynamic sectors. Companies like Factorial, Bnext, Ona Therapeutics or ADBioplastics are revolutionizing their industries with innovative and sustainable solutions.

Investment in startups remains active, albeit with more selective criteria. European funds and the Recovery Plan continue to be key catalysts for digitalization and business resilience.

In the Canary Islands, sustainable and digital entrepreneurship is emerging as a strategic axis of development, while in Latin America, entrepreneurial dynamism generates technological solutions with a strong social and economic impact.

📣 What does this mean for your company?
