Editor’ s Note
Welcome to the latest edition of Intelligent CIO LATAM.
This month we feature Eletronet adopting an AI agent to modernise HR initiatives and accelerate expansion of its operation.
SophIA platform is being implemented to generate more efficiency and agility in hiring talent.
The project is in the implementation phase with the first pilots underway.
On p14, Eletronet CEO Rogério Garchet says the adoption of AI in HR activities marks the beginning of a new trajectory for the company.
Blend has launched expanded operations in Mexico, positioning the country as both a strategic client market and a nearshore delivery hub to support enterprise AI initiatives and Digital Transformation programmes across the Americas.

The expansion marks a significant milestone in the company’ s broader strategy to deepen its footprint across the Americas and support organisations pursuing large-scale data, cloud and AI modernisation initiatives.
Read on p24 how the expansion is going to impact one of the region’ s most dynamic technology markets.
Bergson Lopes, CEO and founder of BLR Data, a pioneering Data Governance consultancy in Brazil, says organisations launching AI initiatives without first assessing their data maturity risk misdirected investments, failed projects and strategic blind spots.
He says on p35 that the result often leads to misaligned expectations, misdirected investments, initiatives that do not scale, constant rework and AI projects that fail before they even generate real impact for the business.
In our new feature Talking Point on p18, GlobalLogic says artificial intelligence projects across Latin America are moving beyond experimentation with 2026 expected to deliver measurable returns on investment through process optimisation and increased automation.
Gabriel Arango, Head of Technology for LatAm, GlobalLogic, says many organisations are moving beyond experimentation and pilot programmes to begin embedding AI tools into their core operations – measuring the real impact of AI initiatives and aligning them more closely with business objectives.
Just a sample, then of what’ s inside – enjoy the read.
Have an innovative month. Make stuff happen. www. intelligentcio. com
