[Applause]

the main one that all

Latin Americans we are living today not

we have lived today, we have not lived

for the last 71 years

we do not produce property

intellectual

officially we do not participate in these

big economies do not win the resource

economic and I can not compare that

income of the Bolivians and the

Latinos are similar to Europeans

the Americans

I will give a small example with a

tablet a cell phone to an American a

iphone costs 650 to a Bolivian

It costs 900 dollars or 1,000 dollars

I can not tell you that here in Bolivia

we earn the same to be able to pay a thousand

dollars for a phone

this is the main problem of which

I come to talk to you today and from which I come

to talk to them as we see solving

little by little this problem is our two

very important data of latin america

if they realize latin america from

Mexico to Argentina

the 2014 that is what it exports and what

matter we have a negative balance

it means that we have bought more than

what we have sold the same happens in the

2015 but low and the three products that

more we export, I want you to put

a lot of attention to oil

Bolivia lives off oil and many

countries we live on oil despite

that already charges and other things not here

I show two important facts that come

happening in the world

the first is the number of cars

electric that will see the 2030

predict that by 2030 consumption in

general of the planet low oil

because the parts of the cars

electrical which is what consumes the most

oil goes up in the second graph

I show you how much that is worth

this is not a company that is

selling the amount of cars that

sell fort but look how is

valued is already exceeding the value

of the fort

that’s what investors think

they are the ones that determine the price

of its shares in the stock market

this data is a validation of the data

above but how does this affect us

we do have oil and

we sold up to $ 100 on

barrel

we had a very interesting economy

here in bolivia but today we have

an economy in half and by 2030

is going to be below so we like

Bolivians and as Latinos we have to

take responsibility and control of

our lives

on this screen is our how much

are worth the companies just in case the data

I took it out and it says 2016 but three years ago

days to paul is valued at 800

million alphabet dollars per se

is it google have microsoft amazon

and Facebook

that’s what these companies cost in

the bag

I do not see any Latin companies here

I do not see any European company the

investment we have made in the

last 70 years

as Latin Americans has only been

export oil gas poor I am but not

we have invested in intellectual property

we have not done anything of this situation

I’m talking about the last 70 years

and intellectual property is done with

education and with research very to

Although we do research very

even though we say we do

education

we have several problems here the model

educational we have today

mainly in Bolivia and

generality in Latin America is a

model that measures the capacity of

memorizing is how we have been taught

and it does not measure the ability to reason

this answers when there was no internet

our educational model all the

knowledge we had were the

books in libraries

then we needed human beings

that they can have a capacity to

memorization

but nowadays we have google a

phone a question you already have the data

but you have so much data that now we

lack of learning to reason about

information we receive

research line universities the

center should pass all the

investigation but reverses

industry at the university

how can I explain that stanford has

a particle accelerator is because

the industry has paid him a part of

a particle accelerator not because

stanford collecting what it charges from its

students can do this not the

university as it should work

I should live from research and

university should be a partner with the

industry but the chain that we have is

university research industry

product but we have a break in that

chain

our universities are not

talking to the industry

then there is no need to do

research create export no more

well we have the need to say

we bring something from outside we sell it

we create more services more services

our economy is of services

the only exporter that really

export kaim in bolivia is the state 90%

and 95% and a small percentage of the

companies that already manage to export their

products outside

this small number of companies are

those that need a lot of

investigation

I’m going to talk is a little bit of my

story so that they understand me what is going

to spend my 18 years

they practically send me to states

united half of my family are

immigrants from there fourth generation

The other half are from Cochabamba

hair after having been in the

university nine years with adobe

systems adobe systems when I joined

adobe were a company of 115 people

when he left adobe adobera the second

largest software company

world and it occurs a lot they invite me to

participate in the creation of a new

data center company where my

ignorance

they just give me papers saying that

I am part of the owner of this company

make those papers and put them aside

after today several years

those papers were worth every action to 127

dollars is for the first time that I see myself

faced before turning 33 years old

to say who worked

what can I do I could sell all of that

and to dedicate myself to live I did not decide to sell and

return to bolivia

today when we started in 2001

we were six people today we are

eight hundred a great responsibility and

I am going to tell you about the challenges we have

had 2001 there was no internet in

bolivia but the only thing that said that

could be software companies to it

then I come here there is no internet

perfect satellite antenna permit no

I want permission I want twenty

satellite entered you win my mind is

there it’s a pity I will not explain

more because I knew that if I put

explain was going to take months months to

give me a license to operate a

satellite antenna

that’s what is a problem but the

biggest problem to tell this

small group of engineers

Let’s compete with the United States

we are going to create solutions so big that

the largest companies are going to buy

they all told you and how it is done

I want to do that has been the most challenging

bigger than Bolivians

at that time they were with me have

could break but these challenges are not

break making only one platform

I believe that everyone can make a

platform a solution

this is a solution that measures the

quality of the network and tell you the

problems that you have on the network and you

can you tell who has been on facebook

state what time you have on facebook

done from your computer but that has

been half the problem

the other half was that the big

companies in the world buy us the

software can see that there it is

microsoft

Swain is the largest shipping company in

world that bought us 50 thousand licenses

four continents can see if I

can see the space agency

Canadian can see telephone and today

l’ore large banks and the most

important to me is always been

the American Navy and the Department of

largest taxes on the planet

the air they buy us when the

engineers have seen that what they have

fact can be sold is real have been

taken away that mind they have freed themselves from that

we are Bolivians and that in Bolivia we

it can be released

that’s happened in 2005 but we’re

doing today I’m told what he has

passed the 2005

today what we are doing today we have

Invested in cloud

we have invested in operating systems and

we have invested in mobile devices

what is internet of things

this is important to us because

with this we practically have a whole

launching platform in center

data is showing how are the

data centers just in case it’s all

technology shows from the cable from

the accessories

because if you are going to buy those

accessories are going to pay four times more

the price of these and the centers of

data will be extremely expensive for

Latin America for the Bolivian

we need to have that control

of design and price clouds or for

explain to them the best that a cloud is and

the challenge of making a cloud

facebook is the best cloud application

of the planet because it has a trillion

users and this data center is

reproduces how a virus can follow

catching more people when there is less

low people without the need for computation

there are more people raise their need for

calculation

our cloud technology is the same

that microsoft

I want you to realize microsoft not

has cloud technology

the cloud that has microsoft south is

based on the same technology that

we are using us free code

openstack they are developed or have

had to adopt the same thing that

we have adopted it we have not

learned we have modified it and that is

what we have done

cloud solutions we have control of

access to smart buildings that comes out

this year we have an architecture of

cloud that we could practically

control from a web page

any smart building that is

part of the product

the most interesting thing that we have been able

grab expose solutions that are not

traditional with smart buildings

when a person asks for vacations in

pull the system knows and the building knows

it means that your first day of

vacation you do not have more access to

building

returns on vacation and the building

remains is access then speaks the

building with the cloud system of

left the most important thing I’ve seen

What has happened to us in Barcelona?

a couple of months ago in February where

jewel

I will tell you the story left there

microsoft is bought nokia but not

buy the operating system

the Finns on their own develops

in the operating system

last year russia for its themes

proper to

since they do not want to be asked by them

do and make themselves appropriates that

operating system in barcelona this year

in February we have presented

together with jewel and we have done the

first agreement where he was investing in

this operating system has been announced

that China on its own has also

failed to make its own system

operative that is based on android

they are investing for china

250 million

the Russians the same for the 225 them

they believe that 50 percent of Russians

they will be in this operating system

The most interesting thing about this is that it has

come latin america with bolivia to the

international press

the industry analysts and I have them

said the same there are only two systems

operatives on the planet and they are not

under the control of the people

android google ios to paul you

ask him to change his accent

in the way that is written to their

phones and they will not receive it

google will take care of us when he wants

to serve them we are like in a certain way

like a prison but with this system

operative

we are releasing give us this

situation we are controlling the part

basic operating system action

gonzález this year is a product leaves

The designer here in Bolivia has been

designed together with qualcomm for

let everyone know what 65 contains

percent of the world market samsung usa

Qualcomm only in the most markets

important to them

they have their own processor but

do not use it that you can realize

because we are talking about the rest of

the phones that weiss know of everything

use qualcomm on the best phones

they have and on used phones

other processors

then we are using this and

we are giving a very strong message to

the industry in the very expensive phones

you only see fast loading in our

100 dollar phone already have

fast charge

in the very expensive 800 dollar phones

you see the sensors

we have on the phone more

baratito all the sensors is a way

to explain to the Latin American that

we need to pay these 800 dollars

to have all those sensors and all

that technology in the foundation is a

investment that we make annual average of

3.5 million dollars

the foundation is free

We have started 2007 to 2017

the problem we have is that the

university produces an engineer with the

30 to 35% of the knowledge required

this industry and it’s not a topic that the

university can not is a subject of

school

the school delivers a human being who does not

is suitable for a high university

level

then we also follow

investing in college and the next

year we enter primary school it takes us three

years to train engineers in jala tres

years where we invest they invest

one year of your time and from there we

we invest two years with their salaries

to be able to train them in Cochabamba

according to the government there are more than

90 software companies and 90 companies

software thanks to that we have been able

We create engineers are ex

jala engineers that are there in

School we have been invested since 2014

with the can program and thanks to fomín

we hope this year to have a program

national between santa cruz la paz and

cochabamba today we have 32

schools three thousand 800 students that

We are training them in regrets

basic tool that is mathematics

and is giving them education by reasoning

it does not matter if they are going to be lawyers or

writers but they do have this parts and

We are also the draft

tablets that we have given this year four

thousand tablets to education

the idea is that at the end of the year we are going to

report this as helped this

technology in education

we also have robotics programs

and with this I finish my talk I hope that

can see from bolivia

yes you can thank

[Applause]
