President Javier Milei's initial policies aimed at revolutionizing Argentina's healthcare system have surfaced numerous challenges, yet also unveil potential future growth. As public health funding increases and provinces prioritize critical areas, opportunities for both public and private partnerships emerge in this transformative phase. Key Messages: 👉 Increased National Health Funding: Despite Milei's austerity measures, public health funding has seen a significant rise in response to accelerated demand for services. 👉 Opportunities for MNCs: Multinational corporations have a unique opportunity to support provincial and national health programs, navigating the complexities of increased demand and insufficient funding. 👉 Optimistic Future Outlook: With Milei's ability to manage an unfavorable political environment and the anticipated economic reforms, there is growing optimism for renewed private investment and further deregulation by late 2025.

🌎 The New Era of Expansion in LATAM 🌎 Globalization and the recent complications of working with China have led many companies to seek alternative markets.  LATAM (Latin America) is presented as a region with enormous potential for the expansion of products/services, as well as the search for new suppliers.  To do this, it is essential to understand the opportunities and challenges that this emerging market presents, and there is nothing better than doing it with the help of someone who knows the culture of the Latin American market. Points to consider: 1) Challenges with China: Reliance on China for manufacturing and supply of products has faced significant barriers, from logistical problems to trade restrictions. 2) Advantages of LATAM: Geographic proximity: Better delivery times and reduction of logistics costs. Emerging economies: Growing markets with an increase in demand for various products. Free trade agreements: They facilitate operations and reduce tariff barriers. 3) Considerations for Expansion in LATAM: - Market research: Understand local needs and preferences. Analyze competition and consumer trends. - Rules and regulations: Know local laws and import/export requirements. Ensure that products meet quality and safety standards. You have to be very careful with the certifications required in each country. - Distribution network: Establish strong relationships with local distributors and partners. Develop an efficient, reliable and continuous supply chain. - Culture and Adaptation: Adapt marketing strategies and products to the cultural diversity of the region and language (starting with our website) - Sustainability and Social Responsibility: Adopt sustainable practices that benefit both the company and the local community. Invest in initiatives that improve the quality of life in the regions where we operate. Conclusion: LATAM is an opportunity for sustainable growth and it is a market that is not yet saturated, on the contrary, it is a rising market. If you are thinking about expanding your business, do not hesitate to contact me to design your expansion in LATAM together. #LATAMOOpportunities #GlobalExpansion #RapiFast #InternationalBusiness #Innovation #EmergingMarkets #CommercialStrategy

I recently had the pleasure to talk with some of Colombia’s leading dermatologists on what makes Latino skins different and why there is a need for specialized skincare products. If you are interested in skincare (and your overall health – your skin is your largest organ), I recommend watching this episode and others of Bojanini Experts Table – thank you for having me on behalf of an entire team! More importantly, I am sharing this post (and will be more vocal on the issue... even if it means attending more podcasts 😅) hoping it serves as an invitation for more inclusive research, not just in dermatology but beyond. Sample bias is something I witnessed during my time studying psychology at Yale University; psychology research often draws conclusions from a narrow pool of Ivy League undergraduate students (where a lot of the research takes place and students sign-up to participate). These findings, unless tested more broadly, aren’t always generalizable to a larger, more diverse population. The same issue exists in skincare research, where there is a lack of representation, particularly for Latino skin types. At Latinología, the first brand of DermaLumina's portfolio, we are committed to changing this. 💪 ➡ WATCH HERE: https://lnkd.in/eTTMBw7z #skincare #latino #dermatology David Williamson Mejía | Luisa Núñez

Out of thousands of applicants, we’re among the top global 200 startups that will be showcased in Silicon Valley's top startup event, a testament to the innovation and grit we've poured into our journey from Latin America to the US and beyond. This milestone comes in this one-year anniversary at my role as Co-founder and COO of Lazo, where I focused on transforming Lazo into a product-led company using knowledge graphs and the latest in Generative AI innovations. From the start, Lazo aimed to simplify the startup journey with our unique approach, Augmented Ops™—AI-powered tools that guide founders through every step, from incorporation, to fundraising to scaling their operations. Today, with having served thousands of customers in over 15 countries and recognition at TechCrunch Disrupt, it’s clear our vision is resonating. This “Perfect Storm” didn’t happen by chance. It’s the result of our team’s dedication and relentless pursuit of innovation. As we look forward to Disrupt and beyond, I couldn’t be more excited about what’s next for Lazo. To every founder out there, my advice is simple: trust your vision, believe in your team, and stay the course.

In my experience across decades in the medical device sector, tapping into the Latin American market isn't just an opportunity—it's a strategic imperative. Many regional governments are rolling out the red carpet for MedTech innovations. Colombia's streamlined regulations and Brazil's burgeoning healthcare infrastructure are just a few examples. But why does it matter? Early feasibility studies and first-in-human trials can be conducted faster and more cost-effectively here. This means you not only get critical data sooner but also prepare for global scaling with invaluable insights from diverse populations. Before taking the plunge, ask yourself: Are you ready to embrace this dynamic environment?

Today, October 19th, is International Breast Cancer Awareness Day. In Costa Rica, this remains the most prevalent cancer among women and one of the leading causes of death. Since our first Women's Health Fair in 2020, ITEK has placed great emphasis on raising awareness and preventing diseases that affect women. We care about the overall well-being of our female employees. We would like to remind you of important points for early detection of this disease: 🔹Perform regular breast self-exams. 🔹Get mammograms periodically based on your risk level, at least every two years. 🔹If you have a family history, you should inform your doctor and start regular check-ups early on. 🔹It's important for men to also be aware of the possible signs of this cancer and report any changes in their breasts to their doctor. Wearing a Pink Ribbon is not enough, which is why, from October 21st to 25th, we will be holding our traditional Women's Health Fair, where the company is committed to covering 50% of the cost of preventive exams for our female employees! #itekcr #costarica #health #wellbeing #awareness #prevention #breastcancer #somosticos

The Dominican Republic is at a pivotal moment in the evolution of its healthcare system. While significant progress has been made, structural challenges such as inequitable access, inconsistent quality of care, and insufficient funding hinder its advancement. Adopting successful practices from international models, like the Dutch system, could help build a more inclusive and efficient healthcare framework. Key strategies include investing in preventive care, integrating public and private efforts, and modernizing the system through technology. These measures are essential to unlocking the potential of the healthcare system and ensuring better outcomes for the population. Taking these steps is crucial for improving public health and fostering sustainable and equitable development in the Dominican Republic. You can read this week’s article in Acento.com.do #innovation #health #e-health #hollandhousecaribbean #hhc Natalia Khomyshyna Omar Bairan Mite Nishio Jorge Mancebo Marcelo Rivas Roel van Wandelen Jean Marco Pou Fernández Frank Hennekens Math Toonen Math Toonen https://lnkd.in/esn53YkH
