The past decade has seen digitalization efforts in Latin America and the Caribbean area ramp up rapidly. Development has been fast, but not homogenous.

In this episode, we explore with him the current status of digitalization in Latin America, and how diverse challenges and opportunities call for country-tailored approaches to propel digital development in the region.
