[00:00:10] This program was receptivity, affected by all presented by
[00:00:13] Alberico Sastre, dress elegant, dress an
[00:00:17] Alberico Anapace with more than
[00:00:20] 60 years of
[00:00:21] experience.
[00:00:33] tools from all
[00:01:05] also to boost everything
[00:01:24] we are going to talk about science and technology with Berecil Rigal and Kristoffer
[00:01:27] Leal from Circom Valley of
[00:01:30] time. all Venezuela. Rigal, the importance of technology in today's world, that we are everywhere
[00:01:34] discussing the topic at an international level, but that in Venezuela it must
[00:01:37] be deepened and applied. That's right,
[00:01:40] ambassador, thank you very much for this space again for inviting
[00:01:43] Silicon Valley. From
[00:01:46] Silicon Valley, our main purpose is to continue promoting
[00:01:50] technology and precisely promoting it also includes supporting
[00:01:53] all those entrepreneurs who are developing technology in the
[00:01:56] country, creating spaces and giving.
[00:02:00] within those spaces a whole ecosystem necessary for them
[00:02:04] to be able to promote technology. Now Kristopher Leal, who is also from the executive
[00:02:07] group,
[00:02:10] what aspects are there to bring, what programs to the public
[00:02:13] the knowledge of these areas? Well, first, thank you, ambassador, for
[00:02:17] inviting us again to your program. And
[00:02:20] basically, I would
[00:02:24] head of all like to tell you to answer your question, that we in our offices
[00:02:28] were able, well, after this seismic doublet. to return to
[00:02:31] operations and we currently have or
[00:02:35] we started again to provide all the mentoring, the
[00:02:39] accompaniment to all the startup projects
[00:02:43] in Venezuela and to be able to scale these business models either
[00:02:46] with investment or with
[00:02:50] youth to accompaniment or with also access to the spaces we have in our
[00:02:54] offices, Licentiate Berecito, doctor now, because she just
[00:02:58] finished a doctorate.
[00:03:00] Precisely in the commercial area, how to explain and how to bring
[00:03:04] that technology to the people so that they understand that it is necessary to enter that
[00:03:07] world, especially with the courses, the projects they have at
[00:03:11] a level not only university but for the general public, I believe that the
[00:03:14] people at this moment have had an interesting
[00:03:17] opening because they are
[00:03:20] making use of technology sometimes directly or
[00:03:24] sometimes indirectly, already the
[00:03:25] we are doing from Semillas de banking entities are practically, let's say, we are
[00:03:28] 90%
[00:03:31] digitized, we see great applications that have
[00:03:35] made important advances within what is also
[00:03:38] our Venezuelan society,
[00:03:41] promotion of network maintenance, and precisely at that point is where we want to continue
[00:03:44] promoting that digital entrepreneurs continue
[00:03:48] to put solutions on the market that allow them to facilitate for Venezuelan
[00:03:52] society, that Venezuelan people, the
[00:03:54] use of resources that facilitate needs that
[00:03:58] were previously complex and that now... can simply be easy through the
[00:04:02] use of these technologies. Kristopher Leal, recently there was a press conference at
[00:04:06] the headquarters of Silicon Valley Venezuela, which is your company,
[00:04:09] why that press conference and what did you want to announce?
[00:04:13] Well, the last press conference we had,
[00:04:17] we basically
[00:04:18] to open up to them, talked about our tour of Venezuela, which is still
[00:04:22] currently well,
[00:04:26] after what happened with the earthquake, it was postponed.
[00:04:30] And for our second batch of accelerated companies, we will
[00:04:34] have it for February of next year. When we talk about
[00:04:38] accelerated companies, it's interesting that Doctor Veres could explain
[00:04:41] all about the seedbeds, the projects, the programs, because
[00:04:45] you can resort to them and they have developed projects. Could you
[00:04:49] list some developed projects and in which Venezuelans can participate? That's
[00:04:53] right, in Silicon Valley Venezuela we promote
[00:04:56] accompaniment, especially for people who already have a small
[00:05:00] business model, defined and already
[00:05:03] tractioning or working in the Venezuelan market. Although we do
[00:05:07] not rule out the option of receiving people who have ideas
[00:05:10] to accompany them as well. in the development and the new
[00:05:13] structuring, as Christopher said, we had planned a
[00:05:17] tour throughout Venezuela that was
[00:05:21] the double earthquake we experienced on June
[00:05:24] 24th, but even so Silicon Valley is not
[00:05:27] standing still, so we decided to launch a sprint that is very short, it will be
[00:05:30] two weeks, it starts on October 19th, keep an eye on our
[00:05:34] social networks, we will be publishing so you can
[00:05:37] register and during those two weeks you will receive a fast
[00:05:41] acceleration process. fast, super short, but where you will
[00:05:44] find very useful tools to develop your business
[00:05:48] models, to know specific things like capital
[00:05:52] raising and even find within this program
[00:05:55] one of them will be selected as the best project and
[00:05:58] will receive a cash
[00:06:01] contribution to boost it in all that
[00:06:05] development. So from
[00:06:08] again, our purpose is to give
[00:06:12] entrepreneurs opportunities and especially
[00:06:14] oportunidades y sobre todo
[00:06:18] they are doing. When Kristoffer
[00:06:21] Leal said, the tours to the interior, what did they include and what
[00:06:24] did they plan to bring or what will they bring? Well, Ambassador,
[00:06:28] we wanted to attend, well, we are going to attend
[00:06:31] six states, among them we will be in Lara state, in
[00:06:34] Carabobo, in Táchira, in Zulia, in
[00:06:37] Margarita and, well, of course, also in Barinas
[00:06:41] state, and here in Caracas will be the grand finale. From these
[00:06:44] six states and the capital city, we will
[00:06:48] be selecting our second batch of accelerated projects,
[00:06:52] which are these projects that at
[00:06:54] the end of the day receive investment,
[00:06:57] receive all the mentoring, understanding also that
[00:07:01] many times these projects are invested in, they are injected
[00:07:05] with capital, and then these projects don't know what to spend the
[00:07:08] money on. Then they appear with a new car and didn't know what to do with the
[00:07:12] money. So that's why all this is being done,
[00:07:15] the important thing that Doctor Bereci comments on, which is
[00:07:19] the express acceleration part, to keep
[00:07:22] the correct information on how to manage your
[00:09:03] Sunday, at 8 p.m., in situational
[00:09:07] analysis, I will talk with the Minister of University
[00:09:10] Education,
[00:09:14] about the situation of higher education and the new
[00:09:17] stage, with the resources of artificial
[00:09:20] intelligence. I believe that all universities have to agree and state
[00:09:24] in a law what the use will be, not only the
[00:09:27] moral use or the use
[00:09:30] from the perspective of humanity, but the
[00:09:34] factual use of artificial intelligence.
[00:09:38] Watch again situational analysis,
[00:09:41] Sunday night on Globovisión.
[00:09:59] We work to bring you home. We made great
[00:10:03] efforts throughout this event, this month and so much that has happened,
[00:10:06] to be with our people and we showed that when you have a protocol, a plan and
[00:10:10] organization, things go well. We are
[00:10:13] starting the process of repairing 1300
[00:10:16] apartments with a criterion of supporting people over
[00:10:20] 65 years old. Then I want to tell my neighbors to be calm, as
[00:10:23] resources arrive, national or international, we will lower that
[00:10:27] range and we will reach all places where it is necessary, but in this first stage
[00:10:30] there are 1300 apartments, common areas of the
[00:10:33] buildings and buildings that have damaged masonry that can be seen from
[00:10:37] outside, the rooms, etc., we will also start there and the
[00:10:41] buildings that are in red.
[00:11:10] We continue our dialogue on Silicon Valley in Venezuela and technology
[00:11:14] with Verc Rigal and Kristoffer Leal. Perecil Rigal, that
[00:11:18] of all technological projects.
[00:11:22] What new projects do you have? At this moment,
[00:11:25] we have evaluated more than 5,000 projects, obviously
[00:11:28] not all are technology-based, we have prioritized everything that has
[00:11:32] a technological base and there is an open investment thesis there, we have
[00:11:35] seen many artificial intelligence
[00:11:38] projects, we have seen other ventures that
[00:11:42] have to do with the retail area, so to
[00:11:45] say that it is only a group that we have chosen, we are
[00:11:49] still seeing many projects, now with the tour at the
[00:11:53] beginning of 2027 we will see many more, and we hope
[00:11:56] God willing to be able to find projects that are distinctive, that
[00:12:00] are very important to solve problems in Venezuelan society
[00:12:04] and who knows if they can also be exposed at an international level. How to
[00:12:08] generate and link these projects that have been carried out
[00:12:12] with the new ones within this seedbed?
[00:12:15] Well, the Silicon Valley projects
[00:12:19] are all from the internal accelerator, so
[00:12:22] of course they have a correlation because
[00:12:26] the accelerator's interest is initially to scale them
[00:12:29] nationally and then for them to be
[00:12:32] able to grow internationally. And in your case, you are also in charge of the
[00:12:35] promotion and maintenance of the networks, how do you make sure that
[00:12:39] this reaches most Venezuelans? Well, we have
[00:12:42] a strategy not only through social
[00:12:45] networks but also by being able to
[00:12:49] sit down one on one with
[00:12:52] each of these project spaces, for example, with universities.
[00:12:56] to reach out to or integrate all those people who have good ideas, have good businesses that can bring to Venezuela
[00:13:00] as a good business model,
[00:13:03] but we have to open up,
[00:13:07] because that's basically what Venezuelans need right now, that
[00:13:11] we can open up to these projects. It's interesting in
[00:13:14] this final part to see that initiative from Dr. Ramón
[00:13:18] Rodríguez and in your case,
[00:13:21] Rigal, an initiative in Venezuela that seemed difficult,
[00:13:25] complicated with the crisis we had, now there's at least a little
[00:13:28] more horizon, but at the time you were born there were many
[00:13:32] difficulties with everything we had, that
[00:13:35] initial start, that initial engine, what
[00:13:39] led you to this? The engine
[00:13:43] that started us in all this process was obviously a prior
[00:13:46] market analysis, we understood that the Venezuelan market and
[00:13:49] especially here in Caracas had an opening, a small
[00:13:53] open door but it was not a big threshold and we wanted to
[00:13:57] have a threshold where entrepreneurs would find all those tools
[00:14:01] and that it would not only be training that would leave them halfway,
[00:14:05] but complete accompaniment. I feel that the
[00:14:09] differentiating value of the brand has given us approval
[00:14:12] and has given us a nice
[00:14:15] receptivity, important in all
[00:14:18] this group of people from Caracas
[00:14:22] and now especially also these people who are
[00:14:25] receiving us with so much enthusiasm and so much
[00:14:29] need in the interior of the country for their projects to be seen
[00:14:32] and taken into account, this has been a validation for Ramón and for
[00:14:35] me to say, we are definitely achieving it, it is a process that
[00:14:39] all... Yes, that's right, ambassador. Well,
[00:14:43] I invite everyone to continue participating and continue
[00:14:46] growing and believing in themselves in platforms like
[00:14:50] Silicon Valley, to boost themselves either in
[00:14:54] technology, in entrepreneurship, finance,
[00:14:57] new technologies, things that when you don't
[00:15:01] know them, you don't imagine all that there is to
[00:15:05] learn. We go to a commercial break and continue with embassies and ambassadors.
[00:15:08] In Silicon Valley, our facilities, we have already planned
[00:15:12] to hold a meetup or a branch where
[00:15:15] ambassadors can attend some
[00:15:19] highly valuable talks and where we can have
[00:15:23] very interesting networking not only
[00:15:25] for them, but also for these people who have valuable
[00:15:29] projects in the Venezuelan market and who can
[00:15:32] complement each other and for ambassadors to
[00:15:35] make known that they are the first entry point to
[00:15:39] these international markets. Now, Doctor Rigal, the academic
[00:15:43] part, the training, the staff, the need to enter these worlds of
[00:15:46] technology from the youngest
[00:15:49] age, with the courses that you have done and will do, how do you
[00:15:52] evaluate it? For us, the academy is very important, it is a
[00:15:56] validator, it is a decisive validator for the entrepreneurs
[00:15:59] that we receive, there is always a
[00:16:03] moment where young people are also learning in a very
[00:16:06] didactic way. Using
[00:16:10] social networks, but it is always key to also
[00:16:14] understand structure, also to understand several of the
[00:16:17] processes and for us it is also key the academic topic,
[00:16:21] we continue reinforcing internally, saying with conviction, the inclusion
[00:16:25] of professors and academics who come to complement, in
[00:16:29] conjunction with our mentors and and experts, all that is
[00:16:33] the formative part and of and of conformation
[00:16:38] what are the models and and verification of the
[00:16:41] business model, there is a structure there in Silicon Valley for those courses, for
[00:16:45] those programs that you have been developing, yes, in fact
[00:16:48] we are about to launch this which is a sprint, it's called
[00:16:52] Sprint Business Silicon Valley and I know that all this has a lot
[00:16:56] of Spanglish but with the concept of Silicon it is a
[00:16:59] concept brought from California and it brings a lot of that, it is also to
[00:17:03] offer through a short time, sprint is a
[00:17:08] that the ability to train in something that
[00:17:11] could be 8 or 9 months, to be able to find it in 2 weeks
[00:17:14] and immediately be able to make use of that resource and
[00:17:17] put it to work for them and their
[00:17:21] ventures, what final greeting will you give
[00:17:24] our audience, inviting them to participate in this? Well, to all our
[00:17:28] audience, an important message is to keep
[00:17:32] entrepreneurial, if you are at a point where you think that
[00:17:34] entrepreneurship has nothing more to give, there is always a new
[00:17:38] opportunity, spaces like Silicon Valley are the ones that provide the
[00:17:41] opportunity to be able to listen to them, to be able to support
[00:17:44] them, to be able to accompany them in all this
[00:17:47] process, follow us through social networks
[00:17:51] @silicon.valibzla, our website
[00:17:55] also at pinry @pinry, at this moment we are also offering
[00:17:59] at pinry an important opening in the recruitment of drivers, so if you are
[00:18:03] a woman who has a vehicle and wants to generate extra income, you can
[00:18:06] write to us through the link that is on the instagram of
[00:18:10] @pinryvenezuela and there we will gladly
[00:18:12] assist you, gladly receive all those people who
[00:18:16] want to download the application through play store and app store as well.
[00:18:20] Christopher, he has been our student in diplomacy and international
[00:18:23] law courses, beyond that, who do you invite from the
[00:18:28] participate in this world of technology and science? That's right,
[00:18:32] ambassador. Well, I invite everyone to continue
[00:18:35] participating and continue growing and
[00:18:37] believing in themselves. platforms like Silicon Valley can
[00:18:41] help them, either in the technological part, in
[00:18:44] entrepreneurship, finance, new technologies, things
[00:18:47] that when you don't know them, you don't imagine

[00:19:46] Today, Sunday, at 8 p.m., situational
[00:19:50] analysis, I will talk with the Minister of University
[00:19:54] Education, Ana María San Juan, about the
[00:19:57] situation of higher education and the new
[00:20:00] stage. With the resources of artificial
[00:20:03] intelligence. I believe that all universities have to agree and state
[00:20:07] in a law what the use will be, not only the moral
[00:20:10] use or the use
[00:20:14] from the perspective of humanity, but the
[00:20:17] factual use of artificial intelligence.
[00:20:21] Watch again situational analysis,
[00:20:24] Sunday 8 p.m. on
[00:22:11] La Guaira state has to be totally
[00:22:14] reconceptualized, probably the construction
[00:22:17] typologies, the designs.
[00:22:21] The methods,
[00:22:24] the tools that are incorporated into these
[00:22:27] buildings will be cutting-edge,
[00:22:30] they will be modern, high-tech.
[00:23:03] We continue the dialogue on Silicon Valley in Venezuela and technology
[00:23:07] with Bercil Rigal and Kristoffer Leal. Perecil Rigal, that
[00:23:11] responsibility you now have at the
[00:23:14] technological projects. What
[00:23:17] new projects do you have? At this moment, we have evaluated more than
[00:23:21] 5,000 projects, obviously not all of them are technology-based, we have
[00:23:25] prioritized all those that have a technological base and there is
[00:23:28] an open investment thesis there, we have seen many
[00:23:32] artificial intelligence projects, we have seen
[00:23:36] other ventures that have to do with the retail area,
[00:23:39] so to say that it's only one group that we have chosen,
[00:23:43] we are still seeing many projects, now with the tour at
[00:23:46] the beginning of 2027 we will see many more, and we hope
[00:23:50] God willing to be able to find projects that are distinctive, that
[00:23:53] are very important to solve problems in Venezuelan society
[00:23:57] and who knows if they can also be exposed at an international level. How to
[00:24:01] generate and link those projects that have been carried
[00:24:04] out with the new ones within this seedbed?
[00:24:08] Well, the Silicon Valley projects
[00:24:11] are all from the accelerator's
[00:24:14] internal division, so of course they have a
[00:24:17] correlation because the accelerator's interest
[00:24:21] is initially to scale it nationally and
[00:24:24] then for it to be able to grow internationally. And in your
[00:24:28] case, you are also in charge of the
[00:24:31] how do you make sure that this reaches most
[00:24:34] Venezuelans? Well, we have a strategy not
[00:24:37] only through social networks but
[00:24:40] also by being able to sit down one
[00:24:44] on one with each of these project
[00:24:48] spaces, for example, with universities.
[00:24:58] to touch or integrate all these people who have good ideas, have good businesses that can bring to Venezuela
[00:25:01] as a good business model,
[00:25:05] but we have
[00:25:08] because that's basically what Venezuelans need right now, that
[00:25:11] we can open up to these projects, it's interesting in
[00:25:15] this final part to see that initiative from Dr. Ramón
[00:25:18] Rodríguez and in your case,
[00:25:22] Rigal, an initiative in Venezuela that seemed difficult,
[00:25:24] complicated with the crisis we had, now there's at least a little
[00:25:28] more horizon, but at the moment you were born there were many
[00:25:32] difficulties with everything we had, that initial start, that initial
[00:25:35] engine, what led you to this? The engine
[00:25:39] that started us in all this process was obviously a prior
[00:25:42] market analysis, we understood that the Venezuelan market and
[00:25:46] especially here in Caracas had an opening, a small
[00:25:50] open door but it was not a big threshold and we wanted to
[00:25:54] have a threshold where entrepreneurs would find all those tools
[00:25:58] and that it would not only be training that would leave them halfway,
[00:26:01] but complete accompaniment. I feel that the
[00:26:05] differentiating value of the brand has given us approval and has
[00:26:08] given us a nice
[00:26:11] important in all this group
[00:26:14] of people from Caracas and now especially
[00:26:17] also these people who are receiving us with so much
[00:26:21] enthusiasm and so much need in the interior of the country
[00:26:25] for their projects to be seen and taken into account, this has
[00:26:28] been a validation for Ramón and for me to say, we are definitely
[00:26:32] still requires continued work and continued investment and continued
[00:26:36] effort, but we are willing to do it because the validation
[00:26:39] has given us the positive results that we have today. Christopher, it
[00:26:43] is interesting to know your direction, where you are, what you want to approach with any
[00:26:47] project and repeat the
[00:26:51] communicating with you, yes, basically
[00:26:54] we are located in the Parque Cristal Tower
[00:26:57] in Los Palos Grandes, West Tower, 6th
[00:27:01] floor, 603, 604 is Silicon Valley
[00:27:05] Venezuela with some companies, eh Beric
[00:27:08] Rigal, which are important in Venezuela, I believe they are also reaching agreements
[00:27:12] to join forces in other areas, but
[00:27:16] yes, in the development of artificial intelligence and robotics it is like that and
[00:27:20] all that is collaborative work where we can add and continue
[00:27:23] building ourselves as an ecosystem, as a country, as a community, it is very
[00:27:27] beautiful to keep promoting it to keep doing it from
[00:27:30] Silicon we have reached Ali
[00:27:33] marvelous, with spaces where before we might have thought
[00:27:36] that it couldn't exist, there is also an important opening
[00:27:40] of the different areas and the different businesses to
[00:27:43] integrate into all this technological theme, I think
[00:27:46] that the receptiveness and the positivism, but above all the
[00:27:50] willingness of the entrepreneurs currently is very
[00:27:53] positive and is very favorable for all other people eh Christopher
[00:27:57] Leal I have seen comments from some embassies, especially Arab ones
[00:28:01] that for cultural reasons they have the habit, for example, of
[00:28:04] wanting a female driver, in that case you have had that
[00:28:08] option, but also in the case of the disabled who were very
[00:28:12] unprotected you have also had that option, explain to us a little, which is
[00:28:15] interesting, yes, with the project accelerated by Silicon Valley
[00:28:18] Pink Rides, we have what
[00:28:21] is the specialized section for female
[00:28:25] drivers to be able to assist these people
[00:28:28] with disabilities or reduced mobility who, of course,
[00:28:31] have certain conditions, certain characteristics
[00:28:34] eh special and our drivers are already
[00:28:37] trained to be able to do this in the best
[00:28:41] possible way, and to finish, what
[00:28:44] could we tell our friends on television, to the followers of
[00:28:47] our program Embajada y Embajadores, how to approach
[00:28:51] you, where to call and above all the
[00:28:54] contribution you make to companies that want to have that nursery, that's
[00:28:57] right, at this moment we have an important opening if you are
[00:29:01] interested in approaching us. We are totally willing, as Christopher
[00:29:05] said, we are in Parque Cristal, Torre Oeste, Piso 6,
[00:29:08] there we can assist you, we also have a channel where you can
[00:29:11] write to us through Instagram, through the website,
[00:29:15] we will also communicate with you in a very
[00:29:18] positive and favorable way, also before closing
[00:29:22] I want to invite you to follow us through social networks and see the initiative that
[00:29:28] la Esperanza, which is also a very beautiful initiative, and to follow us on
[00:29:32] all that is social
[00:29:33] networks @silicon.bbalibzla
[00:29:37] through our website. Well, thanks again to Ber
[00:29:40] Rigal and Kristoffer Leal, after all, they are diplomats in the
[00:29:44] sense that they are bearers of science and technology in
[00:29:47] Venezuela, ambassadors of knowledge, and for
[00:29:50] us in Embajadores, an important criterion, as Kristoffer
[00:29:53] said, there is a meeting soon with several embassies with
[00:29:57] cultural and scientific attachés to present this experience
[00:30:00] and also to learn from them what they have done in this field, so until a
[00:30:04] next meeting, always at the same time by Embajada y Embajadores.
