The recent summit in India for safer, more reliable, and more robust AI concluded with a commitment from more than 80 countries to address this technology from a collaborative perspective and to combat its misuse.

In this regard, many of the participating countries recognized the “need to respond efficiently to demands in various sectors such as energy, infrastructure, and natural resources.” Nations like the United States made clear their rejection of “any attempt at governance,” while organizations like the UN and other world leaders “called for viewing the tool under a collaborative and shared vision.”

They consider this approach key to building trust and maximizing economic and social benefits, according to the declaration signed by 86 countries and two international organizations, in favor of sharing the benefits equitably.

Among the related issues mentioned at the summit were “the advantages of multilingual translation with AI, the threats that this technology may pose to employment, and the energy consumption of data centers.”

In this installment, the consulting firm Neurosales and its director, Carlos Rosales, a postgraduate professor at several universities in Colombia, Panama, Venezuela, and Guatemala, focus on contact activity and its quality or value in closing sales, sharing their insightful recommendations with our users and readers through the Grupo El Sumario media outlets.

“Many salespeople believe that a sale is made on the first attempt. They send a message, don’t get a response, and assume the prospect isn’t interested. But the reality is very different, and most give up after the second contact, when the process hasn’t even begun.”

Various specialists and experts agree that a meeting requires at least eight points of contact. And that’s just to open the door. The rest of the journey depends on how you guide the client through the three natural stages of any sales process: interest, consideration, and commitment. Each stage requires patience, intention, and communication that resonates with the listener.

“The key isn’t doing more, but doing it better. While the average person gets a meeting after eight interactions, the best achieve it in five because every contact has a clear purpose. They don’t send empty reminders or generic phrases. Each message answers what a buyer is silently wondering: why act now, why choose you, how you add value to their business, and why trust your judgment.”

Building trust and value

-Before calling or writing, it’s worth pausing to review five simple points: who the buyer is, what truly matters to them, where they prefer to receive information, when they have the mental space to talk to you, and why they would agree to speak with you. With that clear, designing a consistent sequence is much easier. It could be an email, a LinkedIn conversation, a brief call, or content that helps them better understand their problem. The important thing is that each step builds trust instead of pressure.

“Follow-up isn’t empty insistence. Only 25 % of leads decide quickly. The rest need time, clarity, and support. Sales aren’t achieved by those who rush, but by those who maintain a purposeful pace.”

Top salespeople don’t stand out for making more contacts, but for providing more value in each interaction. That’s why they get more meetings, advance more opportunities to proposals, and close more deals.

“Persistence opens doors. Value is what keeps them open.”

The National Council of Commerce and Services (Consecomercio) called for the reactivation of the economy in Venezuela last Thursday, in a meeting with merchants and service providers.

Given the uncertainty prevailing in the country after the presidential elections on July 28, the organization advocates for the progressive restoration of commercial activity. On the other hand, he urged that private and public property be respected.

In a statement, Consecomercio stressed “the need to restore trust and establish conditions that favor commercial development,” in addition to reaffirming “its commitment to the rights of businessmen and consumers.”

From the organization they indicated that despite the slowdown in commercial activity, Consecomercio anticipates a gradual reactivation in the short term through trust, which requires the “creation of understanding mechanisms with the participation of actors from all sectors.”

According to the organization, it is essential that human and economic rights are respected, within “democratic principles that seek, above all, the well-being of citizens.”

The Italian brand Pirelli will continue to be the sole tire supplier on the Formula 1 grid until 2027, with the option to extend the agreement for another season, with the competition highlighting the manufacturer’s “positive commitment” to the drivers.

This new agreement, which extends the previous one by three years, came just 48 hours after the problems with the Pirelli tires at the Qatar Grand Prix. In the test, three mandatory stops were established every 18 laps, the limit set by the manufacturer for safety, given the curbs that were ‘harmful’ to the health of the tires.

Pirelli will continue as the sole supplier of the grid, a role it acquired in 2011, so this latest agreement will allow it to be so for 18 seasons, including a possible extension. “Over that time, they have responded to a number of sporting and technical changes, including the request to deliver 13-inch high degradation tires for 2011, wider tires in 2017 and the introduction of the current 18-inch rubber for 2022. “, highlighted F-1 in its statement.

The competition highlighted that Pirelli, which will also provide tires to Formula 2 and Formula 3, “has always been positively committed to the drivers, the teams, the FIA ​​and Formula 1 to deliver tires that allow excellent racing”, thanks to the analysis of data to “continuously improve year after year.”

The president and CEO of Formula 1, Stefano Domenicali, assured that the company is “an invaluable partner” in delivering “tires to enable fantastic races.” “The company’s commitment to quality, innovation and its deep knowledge of our sport will be vital in the coming years as we approach our new regulations in 2026,” he added.

In addition, Domenicali thanked the Japanese brand Bridgestone for the “impressive offer” to enter the World Championship. “They have a proud legacy in our sport and I would like to thank them for their highly professional and passionate commitment to us,” he said.

For his part, Pirelli executive vice president and CEO Marco Tronchetti Provera was “delighted” to expand his presence on the grid. “Pirelli was there when Formula 1 was born in 1950, and with this latest renewal, the firm will now be a protagonist for almost two decades of the modern era of F-1,” he said.

“Innovation and technology are embedded in Pirelli’s DNA, and Formula 1 constitutes the ultimate outdoor laboratory not only to test new technical solutions, but also to accelerate new research, development and production processes in tire manufacturing. “, he highlighted about the competition, adding that “being at the forefront until at least 2027 adds another important dimension of value.”

Finally, the president of the FIA, Mohamed Ben Sulayam, emphasized the “high level” of the brand “for many years” to continue “providing innovation and excellence” in F-1. “It is a unique challenge for the tire supplier and Pirelli has shown great commitment to producing tires that meet the extreme demands of these incredible cars,” he said.

“I would like to thank Pirelli for its continued support of motor sport not only in Formula 1, but in many other championships and categories at all levels. In the coming years work will continue to achieve greater progress both in terms of performance and sustainability, and Pirelli has made strong commitments to both objectives,” he concluded.

Greece has formally left this Saturday the reinforced surveillance that the European Commission has maintained for years to supervise the reforms adopted after the rescue plan, “a historic day” in the words of Prime Minister Kyiriakos Mitsotakis.

“The country can now look towards a new clean horizon, one of development, unity and prosperity for all,” said Mitsotakis, in a video that symbolizes the end of twelve years that, as the prime minister has acknowledged, has brought hard commitments.

He has pointed out that there has also been “pain” in these twelve years, the result of a battery of obligations that included “unbearable” taxes and cuts in salaries and public services, as well as the fact that Greece was relegated in Europe, reports the newspaper ‘Kathimerini’.

In this sense, he has admitted that the stagnation of the economy has also added a greater “division” in society, critical of the measures imposed from Brussels. However, he considers that some of these “wounds” have been overcome, such as the increase in violence, institutional weakness or the emergence of the neo-Nazi party Golden Dawn.

The European Commission announced on August 10 that it would not extend the reinforced monitoring of the reforms linked to the bailout, after assessing that Greece has fulfilled most of its commitments and that, by extension, it has reduced the risks for the eurozone as a whole.

The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, stated on Twitter that “thanks to the determination and resilience of Greece and its citizens, the country can close this chapter and look to the future with confidence.” “The EU will always be by your side,” she added.

The digital payment platform PayPal announced its incorporation into the Travel Rule Universal Solution Technology (TRUST) platform, which allows it to be part of a network of important names in the world of cryptocurrencies.

This measure is added to the one that the payment processor had already been applying, within the world of digital assets where you can already transfer, send and receive this type of currency in PayPal and other wallets and exchanges.

TRUST was launched by a group of 18 US Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) in February, with heavyweights like Coinbase, Paxos, Circle, Kraken and Robinhood participating from the start. The number has expanded to 38 now that PayPal has joined the ranks.

“The addition of PayPal marks another milestone on TRUST’s journey to become the global, industry-standard solution for Travel Law compliance”, Coinbase said in a statement on Tuesday.

The objective of this network is to streamline reporting and make the exchange of information simpler and more transparent. TRUST uses a solution that is made up of two main features; a centralized bulletin board to identify each VASP party at both ends of a transaction; and an encrypted peer-to-peer (P2P) channel to securely exchange data.

Joe Cavatoni, regional director general of the World Gold Council (WGC) said that with the Gold Bullion Integrity Program (GBI) of the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) and the WGC, the gold industry will be strengthened and systematized with the blockchain technology that will allow the standardization of reports.

According to Cavatoni, Blockchain technology will strengthen trust in the gold industry and mentioned that the Gold Bullion Integrity Program (GBI) will allow “supervising gold transactions, gold quality, chain of custody and supply“.

Furthermore, the GBI will also facilitate the construction of a “database on the blockchain to help the industry standardize reporting, in order to track and follow the integrity of gold bullion, and take it all the way from back to sourcing so you can feel good and comfortable knowing where the gold comes from,” said the executive.

As you may remember, the GBI was officially announced last March with the purpose of taking advantage of the blockchain technology that was developed by the distributed ledger companies Axedras and Peer Ledger.

Confidence is a key in the international gold market

Ruth Crowell, General Director of the LBMA, stressed that the international wholesale trade of physical gold is closely related to “trust”, which is why various organizations plan to use the Gold Bullion Integrity Program and the tools it offers.

Crowell insisted that the initiative comes at a very important and decisive moment for the precious metals sector. “This is a major step forward in promoting transparency for the common good of the gold industry”.

The Bitcoin Law enters into force today in El Salvador to adopt cryptocurrency as a means of legal exchange in the Central American country. A range of economic possibilities opens up for Salvadoran citizens and for the economy in general, without neglecting controversies and positions contrary to the measure.

The president of the nation, Nayib Bukele, has been active since the early hours through his account on the social network Twitter, due to the entry into force of the legal course of bitcoin in El Salvador.

He has made reference to the benefits for the country of the adoption of this cryptocurrency for commercial transactions, making mention of the Chivo wallet, the availability for Apple, Google and Huawei, among others.

The comments and congratulations to the country for this step towards the adoption of cryptocurrencies have not been long in coming, as is the case with the crypto exchange Binance.

The entry into force of bitcoin as a legal tender in El Salvador is the first step in a process of insertion in the fintech universe, where the country is a pioneer. The road ahead is just beginning; the cards are on the table and the progressive adjustment of this measure to the daily life of Salvadorans is expected.

The dDeputies of the finance commission of the Legislative Assembly of El Salvador agreed to create a Bitcoin trust of about 150 million dollars, with the possibility of expanding, which will allow the exchange and convertibility between crypto and the dollar.

The legislators modified the General State Budget this year to approve the request made by the Minister of Finance, Alejandro Zalaya, who asked to redirect 500 million dollars granted as loans by the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (CABEI), which would be reserved originally for the reactivation of the country’s small and medium-sized enterprises.

According to the modifications, the funds will be reallocated as follows: 150 million dollars were granted to the Development Bank of El Salvador, Bandesal, for the Bitcoin Trust; 53.3 million dollars for the execution of the plan, of which “USD 23.3 million are for the“ Cryptofriendly”. They refer to the spaces where the national executive is installing the cryptocurrency ATMs.

They are also granting 30 million dollars “for the digital wallet promised by President Nayib Bukele as an incentive for Salvadorans to make use of Bitcoin for their commercial transactions through the state’s digital platform called Chivo.”

The rest of the funds will be granted to different government entities, including 20 million for Bandesal, with the purpose of cancelling the temporary subsidy for the increase in wages to micro, small and medium enterprises.

Despite the criticism generated by the legal adoption of Bitcoin in El Salvador by the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, politicians and citizens of the country, the measure will become effective with the entry into force of the Bitcoin Law this month and the government made a video to promote the benefits for the different sectors of the country.

The Tinder application is implementing the option of uploading the respective identity document of each country, which together with the verification of photos will allow to reinforce the environment of trust among its users and they can interact with complete security.

With this measure, the dating social network hopes to prevent the spread of false profiles, preventing users from suffering a bad experience that could become a danger to their integrity.

The company announced that the verification will be carried out worldwide, on a voluntary basis, except in countries where it is mandatory, such as Japan, where users must demonstrate that they are over 18 years of age to access the application, according to the legal statutes that govern in that country.

Rory Kozoll, Head of Trust & Safety Product, noted: “We know that one of the most valuable things Tinder can do to help users feel safe is to give them more confidence that their partners are authentic and more control over who they interact with. We hope that all of our members, around the world, see the benefits of interacting with people who have gone through our identity verification process.”

Greater security

Tinder, being a dating app, has different levels of security. For some time it has implemented the verification of photos that allows users to be sure that they are really interacting with the person shown in the photo, and now with the upload of the identity document it will enhance security for the users of the app.

Additionally, the social network also announced its integration with Garbo. A platform oriented to background checks, according to the public information offered by the countries.

The association with Garbo, the verification of photos and identity, increase the security levels generating the construction of a more secure digital environment and thus provide the possibility of using this type of official identification in the verification of profiles in all social networks.
