The president of the Caracas Stock Exchange, José Grasso Vecchio, stated in a radio interview last week that investors with concrete projects have arrived in the country from the United States, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East in order to generate new business opportunities.

Grasso Vecchio affirmed that “the interest has moved from inquiries to technical planning; he also assured that there are strong responses from people who are discussing figures, concrete projects that will be seen in the coming months.”

According to the official, this dynamism is reflected in “the local stock market index, which has already registered a 200 % increase so far this year.”

Grasso Vecchio indicated that key sectors, such as manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and agribusiness, are attracting the attention of foreign investors thanks to the easing of sanctions by the United States and the reopening of Venezuela’s relations with the IMF and the World Bank.

From his perspective, the Venezuelan market currently has “all the conditions to compete internationally, focusing on providing confidence to those who see the country as a strategic place to invest in this new economic phase.”

Switzerland has the new Alps supercomputer, the sixth most powerful in the world, which places it among the technological leaders along with Finland, Japan and the United States.

The European country will make the sixth supercomputer with artificial intelligence (AI) available to the most sophisticated scientific projects.

Alps will be the new support in the field of science through AI, allowing “to map the universe, separate health information from conspiracy theories and develop more precise climate models.”

It is estimated that once finished, the device will reach a computing power 20 times greater than its predecessor, the Piz Daint, “and enough muscle to exploit the capacity of artificial intelligence (AI).”

So far, 1,000 scientists have signed up to the new Alps network. The director of the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS), Professor Thomas Schulthess, explains the access limitations by arguing that the supercomputer costs 100 million francs (118 million dollars) “and has an annual budget for its operation of 37 million francs.” It is a state-subsidized work, and the subsidies do not scale.

The use of this supercomputer is not mass commercial. “The additional computing power will continue to focus on Swiss and international research projects, in the field of natural sciences, above all.”

However, companies have the option of requesting access to the supercomputer on the condition that they collaborate on their research with a local university and pay the costs of its use.

For its part, the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre must authorize access for a period of three years to so-called spin-offs.

Data security

The CSCS has the obligation to prevent the quality of the data processed by the supercomputers may be compromised by the use of less rigorous filters. “In the natural sciences, we have methods for filtering out erroneous data that have been known since the time of Galileo. We want to help adopt these methods to the humanities, commercial enterprises and society,” said Schulthess.

The Swiss agency is very careful with the quality of data that is introduced into AI systems, because if it is deficient “it could lead to the reproduction of biases and falsehoods with harmful consequences.”

Currently, the Alps supercomputer is used to train the Meditron large language model system, “which processes high-quality medical data. The medical profession uses Meditron to make accurate diagnoses in countries that lack advanced medical infrastructures.”

The application of AI with this device will also make it possible to establish the difference between fiction and reality in terms of information.

The participation of external people in NASA projects is possible through what they have called citizen science.

Non-NASA employees can perform tasks even just with a mobile phone, collecting data in different areas of the agency, but also observing space or carrying out experiments and then reporting the results.

There are some tasks with a greater demand for professional training and technological equipment. But the important thing is that the United States space agency “has 29 citizen science projects, open to collaboration.”

NASA’s objective is to obtain “collaboration between expert researchers and people outside the academy”, because the greater the number of observations, the better the results.

The 29 citizen science projects “range from the search for the hypothetical Planet 9 to investigating the atmosphere of our own planet, including the search for exoplanets and clues about dark energy. And, of course, keep track of life outside our planet.”

The Colombian government through the Ministry of Information and Communication Technologies (MinTIC) launched a Guide with the guidelines for the development of blockchain-based projects within the public sector.

The guide offers the necessary regulations so that government institutions can host blockchain technology in the different Colombian ministries and agencies. In addition, it provides tools so that projects can be created and developed in an “organized, staggered and structured manner, taking into account the recommendations of government agencies.”

Carmen Valderrama, Minister of Information Technologies of Colombia, said that blockchains have become “a necessity not only for the private sector but also for the public sector to the extent that it responds to many of the objectives set.” Individuals and organizations can consult the guide on facebook.com.

Blockchain players in the public sector

Some institutions have become the protagonists of the public sector blockchain in Colombia and already have their activities based on this technology. One of the first institutions to venture into this type of technology will be the National Land Agency (ANT) with the purpose of offering “greater security in the land titling process.”

Another organization that is also venturing into the blockchain is the Rural and Agricultural Planning Unit (UPRA), which will be based on the guide designed by the executive to monitor panela prices in the country.

Minister Valderrama also recalled that in 2021 the executive launched a first version of the guide, which contained the basic principles of blockchain implementation in public administration. Which “left enormous lessons and allowed us to take great steps.”

The representative of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), Cristian Morales, announced the development of 32 projects in the health sector with the purpose of strengthening the health system in Venezuela.

Morales said: “We are discussing with the Ministry of Health where the priorities are to be able to intervene in the areas of comprehensive community health; as well as raising management capacities, delivering medicines and supplies, recovering the infrastructure.”

The projects will be offering support in various areas such as: medicines, strengthening the capacities of health centers, such as the Comprehensive Diagnostic Centers (CDI), among others.

Reactivate the pharmaceutical industry

The representative of the WHO and PAHO highlighted the importance of reactivating the country’s pharmaceutical industry to be able to produce the medicines that the population requires and that allow them to improve their health conditions. In his opinion, the country has a fairly strong pharmaceutical industry compared to other countries.

“Not only raise production, not only raise the laboratories where the medicines and vaccines that Venezuela can develop are produced; but also to raise the capacities of the Ministry of Health, of the Institute of Hygiene to be able to ensure that this production is of quality”, he explained.

On the other hand, Morales also referred to the need to optimize the living conditions of workers, who, in his opinion, are working in “very complex conditions” that have worsened as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Morales also confirmed that the WHO, like PAHO, has always supported the country in the “definition, implementation, and supervision of public health policies.”
