Supporting LAC IPAs and EDO's Digital Transformation and investment attractions tools after COVID-19 to strengthen LAC Regional Value Chains
Digital transformation for IPAs has become almost mandatory in a very short time together with investment tools more suited to businesses realities, but few agencies are ready to respond to investors. At the same time the pandemic has caused a serious decline in gender equality in the labor and investment markets, particularly in developing countries. The objective is on one hand to support IPAs to incorporate digitalization in their services, country value proposition, teams and processes, and on another hand to identified the most suitable tools to stimulate FDI and what role FDI can play in reducing the gender gap. Activities can include testing pilots of chatbots to answer to investors, drones to record images of industrial zones, artificial intelligence to generate leads, georeferencing maps/platforms (zoom prospectors / data microsites), virtual reality tours, data tracking service, revamped online value propositions, workforce sharing platform, online MOOC, financial tools, talent related activities , etc.

DIGITAL 101 – DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES
The concept of Digital Transformation can be described as adopting business processes and practices to help the organization compete effectively in an increasingly digital world.  This definition of digital transformation has two important implications for managers: First, it means that digital transformation is fundamentally about how your business responds to digital trends that are occurring whether or not you initiated them, like them, or want them.  Second, it means that how an organization implements technology is only a small part of digital transformation. In cases where digital transformation does involve implementing new technologies, technology is only part of the story.  The digital transformation requires that institutions and all its workflows and org charts be transformed in order to build and sustain digital services. Thus, there is a clear need to provide capacity building to all stakeholders in various areas associated with the digital transformation.
