According to recent industry data from AWS, 88 % of companies in Mexico report that artificial intelligence initiatives have increased productivity and improved revenue or profitability.

By operating closer to clients, the company aims to deliver solutions with greater speed, deeper collaboration and stronger alignment with local business and regulatory environments.
The new Mexico operations will serve two complementary purposes. First, they will allow Blend to work directly with Mexican enterprises and public sector organisations seeking to implement enterprise-grade AI solutions.
