I want to tell you that I grew up in a
family of four women and when I
I was little I wanted to be super powerful
like many children and the superpower that
I wanted to have was to communicate
telepathically with my sisters because
we are supremely united wanted
Tell them about my plans for my projects
what was going on in the school of
what was happening with my friends, well, that’s
super power I already have it as well as
you have it given that with
apps similar to whatsapp me
I can communicate online with any
person does not matter where I am
I can communicate via text I can
communicate via photographs via videos
I can even make video conferences
in groups with my friends and my family
so this conception of superpowers
that sounds more like a science book
true fiction or sounds more like movie
superheroes like Ironman
little by little it is becoming reality
thanks to technological innovation the
technological innovation creates changes
exponentials in systems in processes has
created a new business reality
including a new digital economy
because they think about the industry that
you want digital innovation or
technological innovation has
revolutionized any industry what
we saw this morning with fast and what
we just saw with this talk about
agriculture and technology
I bring you some cases that are
family for everyone how the
innovation creates exponential changes
for example the largest retailer in the
world does not have a single problem does not have
not a single store however millions
of users buy products and
services through him in different
countries in the world this retailers is called
amazon or what happens with the revolution that
happened in the in the transportation industry
the largest transport company
of the world does not own a
however, it has more than 350,000
drivers is in more than 170 countries in
the world and they make millions of journeys
monthly this company is called uber
or what they tell me about the hotel industry
the biggest hotel in the world does not have
not a single bed however is
present in more than 50,000 cities
of cities in the world has 30
millions of offers
and has made people like us
can rent space that we have left over
hotel is called boiled bi as we see in
this example of hotel transport
technological innovation has made
people like us ordinary people
in the case of uber we can monetize
our vehicle that before was only for
personal use or we can monetize space
that we have left with beds or sofas that we
They left over through ANV and tell me
the technological revolution that has had
the world of advertising the company more
great advertising in the world not
has radio station does not have
TV has no newspapers or
magazines is a social network and has today
day more than 1.5 billion users in
the world puts us our facebook
Walls advertising products and
services in such a subtle way but to
the time with products and services are
related to us and what we like
that the purchase incidence is high and
gentlemen innovation does not end here as
we have seen it through
the talks the innovation creates processes
exponentials that is happening in the
car industry companies like google
as über and as tesla are working
in the first vehicle that does not need
driver does not seem like it’s a bit
transformers it is said that by 2019
the people in the state of california
they will be able to buy their own cars
that are handled alone or amazon is
working on the delivery of products and
services through drones the
technological innovation is exponential a
example that fascinates me and is one of the
predictions of 2016 is that the next
industry to be revolutionized is the
insurance industry nowadays
two thirds of the carriages in
the usa are completely connected
to the internet then the companies of
sure they will be going to know how
we drive if we skip traffic lights if
they are putting parts to us so sure
that will charge us will be
directly related
like how we drive fascinating
they then have all these
innovations in common
all these innovations according to my
perspective were written in the same
language
and this is the language of programming
the programming language is more
close to having a superpower because
because with programming I can solve
any problem all these
innovations that I gave you as an example
they were created by teams of people
who understand this language and it was not that
über went from overnight to all
these innovations started being
small ideas after applications with
hundreds of thousands of users and today they are
consolidated companies that have
revolutionized your industry the vertical
of your industry
a fascinating example that also gives them
I brought it and that I do not want to lose it is
Yesterday, the Nobel Prize was awarded
chemistry
that they gave him a prize and it was that
these three scientists created a
machine made of molecules that is more
small that a that a hair and that machine
made of molecules if you inject a
little energy follows the instructions
that we as users
we give you then is not this fascinating
for those who watched the big movie
series number 6 were the nanobots
nanobots were particles that we
control let’s go with the mind this no longer
it’s sci- fi this is happening
and was the Nobel Prize in chemistry
I want to ask you audience
who is from here know how to program
Programming language
schedule encourage me over here I see two
two others back here arturo also
I have someone else around here aso less
about 10 of the entire audience now
I want to ask another question who is from
you can speak and write English
fantastic this that tells me not to
it matters the career that you have
here we surely have entrepreneurs
student engineers administrators
sportsmen dancers musicians like
we have all understood the language of
English as an excellent universal with the
which I can communicate is the
language of globalization good something
similar mind is going on with
Programming programming is the language
of innovation is the language of
future and it does not matter what career we
let’s have the ability to
Computational thinking is key to
to be able to take on the challenges that bring us
these new digital economies
but for you to understand that it is
to program what is this to program that
it still sounds like so conceptual
I want to tell you to share my
perspective that is programming and that
it’s not programming programming it’s not
boring programming is not lonely
programming is not for people
smart gifted with the aic and
perfect programming is not five years
of university studying engineering
programming systems is not only for
adult programming is not just for
men then if that’s not
programming that is programming for me
programming is a language like
any other that allows me to solve
in a logical and structured way
problems programming is self-taught
I can learn by my own means
Programming programming is for
women
programming is an activity done in
group with dry programming creates and
cooperate to arrive at solutions
programming is also for children and
here I want to emphasize in special
since our children today are native
digital what is that about natives
digital
unlike me children today
they grew up with the internet they grew up playing
videogames grew with access to
mobile applications grew with
access to smartphones and
tablets these children is relevant
teach programming because today
consume digitally and passively
my dream is to change this equation and that
children stop being consumers
technology liabilities to be producers
of technology to my students I tell them
why do you play the game made by
someone else when you can create your
own video game you can create your
own applications and as well as in the
school we learned
social we learned chemistry we learned
physics we learned biology how it works
the digestive system children today
day it is important that you expose yourself to the
programming and wonder how
internet works how you create a
mobile application what is this from
algorithms
because because the programming is the
language of the future that we should give
these tools to children so that
face this new reality
digital
this new digital economy
it brings us many challenges
both in the corporate part and in the
part of entrepreneurship today we have a
new corporate reality and those
people who know this language the
programming in general have a
40% more compensation than those who do not
they know a million excellent jobs
they are still not filled because there is no
enough people who know the
programming language with respect
to entrepreneurship we have a new
business reality programming and
technology makes entrepreneurs
can try to move and try new
business models in a very
cheap or can scale their current
business models to markets
regional or global markets or for
those entrepreneurs who are already a
little more established to have solutions
of crm or cloud computing is very
simple very cheap today the cdm that uses
My company costs 10 dollars a month
quite sophisticated of the relevance of
learning programming not only affects
the global economy we are already seeing
in colombia we had a whole talk of
fast by which I use the application
and fascinates me taps and revolutionize the
how we ask for taxi and taxi in the
country five years ago this company not
there was
then as we become more relevant the
programming topic by teaching
our children in school nine of
every ten parents understand the
importance of your children learning
programming however only one of 14
programming is taught by schools today
that in most schools teach is
you are teaching office
our children excel power point word
when they are tools that should be
taught self
but it is very easy to learn programming
and I brought them some places where
Even you and your children can
learn for free
we have that heretical point we have to
khan academy we have a code to chain in
train give one hour of colt which is
pretty easy and pretty simple and what
they make for free
we also have boot camps where you
you can also educate we have two
Colombian companies word time world the
makers and arucas
finally I want to leave you with a
ask what is the superpower that
you want to make it happen because
with programming everything can be many
Thank you
