Mexico City Executive Forum '26- Ganando en la era de la IA: de la experimentación a lo nativo en IA
Mexico's 25-year productivity stagnation makes AI adoption an urgent national competitive necessity
“it's not just a topic that's trendy and popular; it's a topic that's necessary for the country”
A McKinsey QuantumBlack executive presented at an AWS executive forum in Mexico City, arguing that Mexico's 0.2% productivity growth over 25 years makes AI adoption existentially important rather than merely fashionable. The talk draws on World Economic Forum analysis of AI status across Latin America. As a regional enterprise adoption briefing with no new product or research announcement, it offers limited signal for the broader AI industry but is relevant for LatAm market dynamics.
