Artificial Intelligence in Uruguay: Interview with Martín Alcalá, from Tryolabs

The generalization of electricity was probably one of the most important revolutions of the last century. With it, not only did it improve the lighting of streets and houses and lengthen the day at will, but it also brought to life a number of devices that became essential to contemporary society.

 

And now, what technology could generate a similar impact to that one?

 

For the Uruguayan company Tryolabs, the answer is "artificial intelligence", and its partners know what they are talking about. That's what they've been working on for at least six years, a period in which Tryolabs has launched innovations that have attracted attention even in Silicon Valley, in the United States.

Uruguayan export software for the financial industry: Interview with Marcelo Kosec, from De Larrobla y Asociados 

What other kind of experiences can we find if we look at the Uruguayan Chamber of Information Technology?

 

De Larrobla y Asociados, one of the flagships of the ICT industry in our country, achieved in the early 90's something that seemed impossible: to export software to the region in a very specialized field such as the financial sector.

 

Twenty-five years later, fully consolidated and with a presence in 12 countries, it is developing a new line of business called Bantotal Developers, a platform for entrepreneurs and companies to create applications for the financial industry.
