Reading about Smartvel in his recent interview got me thinking—how can technology enhance the traveler’s experience and create value for the cities they visit? What I found particularly interesting is their use of AI to personalize content for travelers, from events to local highlights. It’s like creating a bespoke guide that adapts to each person’s journey. But as someone passionate about UX and smart cities, I can’t help but wonder about the broader potential: Could this approach improve how cities connect with both residents and visitors? How might personalized experiences promote more sustainable tourism? What role does content curation play in designing cities that are welcoming and inclusive for everyone? From a user experience perspective, it’s fascinating. Smartvel addresses a traveler’s need for relevant, timely information while quietly supporting city goals like visibility and engagement. It’s a reminder that great design—whether in tourism or urban planning—is about understanding and connecting with people on a deeper level. What do you think? Can #SmartTourism help cities thrive in ways we haven’t fully explored yet? #UX #SmartCities #SmartDestinations #Innovation #Sustainability

I recently came across an insightful presentation by #Mauricio Cárdenas, with whom I had the privilege of working earlier in my career. His analysis of the global energy landscape is both timely and crucial. Here are some key takeaways: • The global landscape is increasingly defined by energy crises, geopolitical tensions, and the urgent need for energy transition. • Brazil and Guyana are capitalizing on these shifts, enhancing their oil production and gaining strategic importance. • Mexico’s success with “friend-shoring” highlights the significance of geopolitical stability in securing energy investments and reshoring manufacturing. • For Colombia, there’s a clear opportunity to lead in renewable energy development, boost energy self-sufficiency, and leverage trade agreements to attract global investments. • Navigating these challenges effectively will be crucial for maintaining economic growth and ensuring energy security in a volatile global environment.
