Cuando las reglas del juego cambian, hacer las preguntas correctas importa más que nunca. La semana pasada organizamos un desayuno privado en Zerdo con líderes del sistema financiero ecuatoriano. Más allá del networking, fue un espacio para conversaciones reales sobre los desafíos estructurales que definirán el 2025. Nuestro asesor legal, Rafael Serrano — especialista en protección de datos e inteligencia artificial — abrió la discusión con una pregunta clave: ¿Cómo tomamos decisiones en un entorno que cambia más rápido que la legislación que intenta regularlo? En AltScore creemos que el futuro no se enfrenta desde la comodidad, sino desde la claridad, el pensamiento crítico y la colaboración. Por eso generamos estos espacios: para tomar mejores decisiones y generar impacto real. Gracias a nuestros clientes por su confianza continua, y a los demás referentes del ecosistema financiero que enriquecieron la conversación. Su participación nos recordó algo esencial: quienes están más cerca del problema, están mejor preparados para liderar el cambio. Joaquin Davalos Ponce, Paola Figari, Carlos Diego Vergara, Héctor Moya López, Elena Ojeda Báez, Henry Cortez Luis Eduardo Paz y Miño, Guido Lopez Galiano, Norma Donoso, Rina Rivera, Martin Trujillo Mancheno y Gregory Omar Rendón Torres.

Lo que estamos viendo en Rosario con Coca-Cola Andina no es solo otra activación de crédito — es un cambio en la forma de vender, cobrar y fortalecer el canal tradicional en #LATAM.

Esta semana, nuestro CEO lideró el Quarterly Business Review (QBR) con The Coca-Cola Company en Río de Janeiro. Desde esa sala con vista al Pan de Azúcar, analizamos el impacto real de nuestra solución de crédito —hoy desplegada junto a embotelladoras de The Coca-Cola Company en toda América Latina. Nuestra plataforma no es solo crédito, sino que habilita pagos digitales B2B que: 📈 Aumentan las ventas 🔻 Eliminan el uso de efectivo 💸 Mejoran el margen financiero ⚙️ Y reducen la fricción operativa en cada punto de contacto: vendedores, repartidores, tenderos y equipos de back-office. Donde hay distribución de Coca-Cola, habilitamos crédito. Y donde hay crédito, habilitamos crecimiento. Seguimos avanzando junto a Coca-Cola, empoderando al canal tradicional a crecer. Gracias a Paulo Mendes y Emilia Malina por recibirnos. (Luis Carlos M., Melissa Bonilla Cantu y Kevin Mauricio Herrera Gonzalez nos hicieron falta!)
