Facing the Fourth Industrial Revolution

This week's annual World Economic Forum meeting in Davos will focus on "Preparing for the Fourth Industrial Revolution." This is an urgent challenge for all countries – one to which Mexico has already begun to respond.

MEXICO CITY – The current era of innovation, in which cutting-edge technologies are disrupting entire economic sectors at a breathtaking rate, has been called the Fourth Industrial Revolution. It is also the theme of the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting this week in Davos, Switzerland – and rightly so. In the coming years, the scope and pace of innovation will transform how we produce, distribute, and consume. To maximize the benefits, we must take steps now to prepare our economies and societies, with a focus on three key areas: education, the business environment, and connectivity.
