Santiago Otero Armengol, president and founder of Evenpro Corp, has left an indelible mark on the global entertainment industry. With a career spanning more than four decades, Otero is known for his ability to transform uncertainty into success, an approach that began with a surfing championship at the age of 17 and has been consolidated in the successful direction of large-scale events, which have attracted up to one and a half million people.

The path or major wave mastered and surfed by Otero has not been conventional, but it has been full of valuable lessons. In a dramatic turn of his life, a near-death experience while surfing precisely giant waves in the Pacific offered him a unique perspective on how to face challenges and handle uncertainty. This experience not only taught him how to navigate the ocean, but also provided him with the necessary tools to manage his successful company.

Career and path forged in the waves

Santiago Otero’s story begins in youth, when he organizes and participates in his first surfing championship at the age of 17. What seemed like a simple hobby became the springboard for a career that has defined the entertainment landscape in Venezuela and beyond. Over the years, Otero has taken his passion for surfing and his business vision to the creation of internationally renowned events, establishing a legacy of innovation and success in the industry.

However, it was an extreme experience during a surf session in the Pacific that redefined his approach to life and business. Facing huge and dangerous waves taught him to remain calm as well as prudent in adverse situations, and to face uncertainty with creativity and hope. “In a world full of uncertainty, moving forward, even if it is not in a straight line, allows us to take advantage of every opportunity,” says Otero, convinced and proven.

The art of navigating uncertainty

Otero has become a master in the art of managing uncertainty, a challenge inherent to the entertainment industry. His philosophy is based on the belief that uncertainty should not be seen as an obstacle, but as an opportunity to grow and innovate. “A life without challenges is a life without growth,” Otero explains. His approach focuses on proactively identifying and addressing problems, rather than letting uncertainty paralyze us.

In event management, this translates into meticulous planning accompanied by flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances. Otero uses the analogy of surfing to illustrate his approach: “It is essential to measure the terrain and choose your wave. We must review our winds and currents,” comparing the skill needed to surf to the ability to face and overcome adversity in the business world.

The importance of a strong team

One of Evenpro’s greatest assets is its team. Otero stresses that having a committed and courageous team is crucial to facing the challenges of the uncertain world. “We must prepare for what is coming, surrounding ourselves with people willing to dare,” he says. Selecting and developing a talented team not only helps ensure success in executing events, but also brings a variety of perspectives and skills that enrich the creative process.

A team’s ability to adapt and meet challenges with resilience is vital to keeping pace in a rapidly changing industry. Otero values his team members who not only fulfill their responsibilities, but also contribute innovative ideas and creative solutions. This collaborative and proactive mindset allows Evenpro to stay ahead of the curve and overcome unexpected obstacles.

Evenpro Corp: Innovation and Social Responsibility

Evenpro Corp, under Otero’s direction, has evolved to become a leader within the entertainment industry, offering events ranging from concerts and festivals to cultural and corporate experiences. The company is known for its ability to create memorable and exciting experiential experiences, which capture the essence of fun and culture.

Likewise, social responsibility plays an important role in Evenpro’s mission. Recently, the company has announced a partnership with renowned artist Fonseca to support music and childhood in Cuyagua. This commitment reflects Otero’s vision of using the success of his company to generate a positive impact in the community. “We want to not only entertain, but also contribute to the well-being of society,” says Otero. The alliance with Fonseca seeks to promote music and offer support to children, demonstrating that Evenpro Corp cares about more than just entertainment.

Transforming the future through adaptation

His focus on adaptability and preparation has allowed the company to overcome challenges and stay relevant in a dynamic environment. Otero’s vision is clear: face the future with confidence, creativity and courage; he summarizes.

“We must arm ourselves with courage to turn uncertainty into a growth engine,” concludes Santiago Otero Armengol. His story is a key and valid testimony on how passion, preparation and the ability to adapt constitute fundamental inputs and at the same time favorable conditions to transform challenges into opportunities and lead to lasting success.

Rapid advances in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) are rapidly reshaping society and business globally.

However, in Latin America, a high level of distrust (or perhaps prudence) towards this disruptive technology persists, as revealed by a leading regional expert.

Challenges and mistrust

Limited access to AI technology in the region, fear of job loss by workers, and widespread reluctance to share personal data are key factors hindering the development of AI in Latin America, according to Alejandro Anderlic, Director of Government Affairs and Public Policy at the technology company Salesforce.

AI is a powerful tool that can bring substantial benefits to society and businesses. Salesforce advocates for “ethical artificial intelligence,” which refers to the responsible use of this technology.

The company has established an “Ethical and Humane Use Office” since 2018, with a focus on deploying trustworthy, responsible, inclusive and transparent AI.

Anderlic emphasizes that the perception of AI technology as trustworthy depends on factors such as respect for privacy, security and ownership of data.

Fourth industrial revolution

According to Anderlic, we are immersed in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, where AI, machine learning, cloud computing, data analytics and the Internet of Things (IoT) are having a profound impact on everyday life and the labor sphere.

This revolution is characterized by its astonishing speed and its influence not only on technology, but also on politics, the economy and society in general.

In relation to the social gap, Anderlic highlights the importance of democratizing AI in Latin America, guaranteeing that everyone has access to this technology and its benefits.

The region has great potential in terms of human capital and creativity, which could boost its development and transformation.

At a press conference in Marrakech during the Annual Meeting of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, Kristalina Georgieva, managing director of the IMF, has renewed her call to accelerate debt restructuring processes in distressed countries that request.

Georgieva has highlighted the importance of creativity in the so-called “Common Framework”, an initiative supported by the G20 countries. Although this approach has not produced quick results in the past, the economist reports that there has recently been encouraging progress in processing requests for assistance.

The managing director mentioned concrete examples, such as Chad, who completed his restructuring in 11 months; Zambia, in 9 months; Sri Lanka, in 6 months; and the current ongoing negotiations for Ethiopia, which Georgieva hopes will continue to move forward similarly.

The “Common Framework” not only involves the traditional creditors of the Paris Club, but also features new creditors such as Saudi Arabia, China, Brazil and the Arab Emirates, as well as private creditors and representatives of borrowing countries, all working together.

Georgieva showed understanding towards countries’ complaints about their debt burden, especially when it relates to the effects of climate change, a problem for which these countries are not responsible.

Regarding the cancellation of debt in countries in difficulty, Georgieva acknowledged that this measure is extremely difficult, since it requires the unanimous agreement of all participants in the “Common Framework” round table.

TikTok announced the launch of “TikTok Avatars”, a series of customizable 3D avatars with which the social network intends to encourage its users to use them in recording videos.

According to the information provided by the platform, their purpose is “to encourage creativity, such as Effect House, Library and the option to extend the duration of your videos up to 10 minutes.” These 3D avatars are available in the ‘Effects’ section of the application, within the “Interactive category”.

After selecting the option, users have the possibility to “customize their avatars with a wide variety of skin tones, haircuts, accessories, makeup and piercings.”

TiKTok will continue to innovate

The platform’s series of 3D avatars can be used in two ways by users. One is to use “preconfigured” avatars. The second is to create them from scratch, for which it is necessary to “select the new button” and add different features: “mouth, nose and ear shapes, eye colors, eyebrows or beards”, since it only allows you to configure faces.

Once the avatar is created, they are integrated into the video, being superimposed on the “video image as if it were a filter” following the user’s gestures and movements during the recording.

The TikTok social network stressed that it will continue to “improve and innovate this experience” in order to make it “truly representative for all users” of the platform, which is why it will continue to adopt user comments to perfect the “interactive proposal.”

The opinions of the users will be worked on in the “Creator Diversity Collective” department, a committee made up of content creators from different origins, to ensure a more inclusive and representative experience
