Government innovation in the age of artificial intelligence:

Agath is a company focused on applying data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance decision-making across both public and private sectors, with a strong commitment to supporting the development of the digital ecosystem in Colombia and Latin America. As part of its strategy to foster innovation, Agath has launched an online professional collaboration platform, along with a book designed to educate readers on key AI concepts and highlight practical applications and local success stories, such as the Arcángel project in the healthcare sector. Arcángel illustrates how applied AI can transform citizens’ lives, showing that AI is already a technology with real impact in critical areas like public health—where its benefits extend beyond the technical to deliver tangible human value. However, one of the greatest challenges in maximizing AI’s impact lies in data quality: it is essential to have accurate, complete, and high-quality data. Without it, models and algorithms lose effectiveness and cannot deliver reliable or scalable results. AI is far more than a passing trend; it has established itself as a continuously transformative technology that deeply affects multiple sectors and is propelled by the rapid pace of its advancement. Yet this speed also means that professionals and organizations must continuously update their knowledge to keep pace with innovation. As this technological revolution continues to redefine both the business and social landscape, it presents an unprecedented opportunity to apply AI in a strategic and structural way.
