We’ll start by conducting the necessary market research to understand the opportunities. Beyond rice, we are also exploring the potential for robotics in agriculture—particularly autonomous machines. In France, for instance, we already have robotic sprayers operating in vineyards. Given Argentina’s large vineyards and extensive farmland, we believe there’s strong potential to bring in high-tech solutions, especially in areas where automation can improve efficiency and productivity.

It’s true that Argentina, compared to some other countries, still faces challenges when it comes to achieving gender equality in the business world. When I attend meetings in Argentina, I notice a predominance of men, especially at senior levels. This is in contrast to places like Brazil, where there is more gender balance in leadership. However, Argentina has a strong cultural foundation with women who have historically been leaders in various sectors, such as the mothers of Plaza de Mayo, and there is a growing movement advocating for women’s rights.

One of the biggest frustrations is that banks don’t fully understand ecosystems or customer relationships. Traditional banks still treat individuals as isolated entities, failing to recognize that people operate within financial ecosystems—families, businesses, shared expenses.

AI represents one of the most transformative shifts in technology, and the industry must adapt quickly. Last year, during our annual business summit in Bariloche, 200 industry leaders identified AI as a top priority. Recognizing its potential, we launched an AI hub to coordinate industry efforts and shape public discourse around regulation and adoption.

In past administrations, attempts were made to stimulate mortgage lending, but without long-term stability, these efforts did not yield lasting results. We believe that for a robust mortgage market to develop, Argentina needs sustained low inflation and a credible financial system that encourages long-term savings in local currency. While there is potential for growth in this sector, it will likely take years of economic normalization before mortgage lending can thrive on a large scale.

This division is stark: the government has been consistently bankrupt, while the private sector—at least the wealthier segments—has managed to accumulate and maintain assets. However, the country remains highly polarized between those with substantial financial resources and a large population struggling with poverty.

To simplify, I’d divide the industry into three areas: vehicle logistics, container operations, and Patagonian port activities. In vehicles, we are market leaders, so we have a clear view of the industry trends. In container logistics along the La Plata River and the Hidrovía (waterway system), we hold about 8-9% market share, making us a significant player but not the largest. In Patagonian ports, we are among the leaders and closely follow developments there.

Such an organized macroeconomic environment directly benefits the microeconomy by ensuring that entrepreneurs have the confidence and clarity to plan and invest in projects that drive employment and sustainable growth. With a predictable economic landscape, businesses are empowered to take decisive actions that ultimately translate into improved living standards and a more robust economy for all Argentines.

By the 2010s, Bagó’s reach extended to 20 countries, with products distributed in over 50 worldwide. As a pharmaceutical group, our exports of value-added products have exceeded $50 million, and our performance has contributed to a dynamic and competitive national industry. Today, despite macroeconomic challenges, the Argentine pharmaceutical industry remains an important player in global markets, with a focus on maintaining high standards and innovation in production.
