en.Wedoany.com Reported - IBM warns that digital sovereignty will become a strategic requirement for enterprises to leverage the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) without compromising their autonomy. This trend, driven by the rapid adoption of AI, is forcing organizations to rethink data management, algorithm governance, and control over technology infrastructure. According to the AI Governance Study, published by the IBM Institute for Business Value (IBV) in collaboration with the Dubai Future Foundation and Oxford Economics, large enterprises valued at $20 billion lose an average of $140 million due to AI compliance violations.
The study indicates that 48% of this economic impact stems from governance gaps or deficiencies. Faced with this vulnerability, projections show that by 2030, over 75% of enterprises will have a digital sovereignty strategy. Although implementing orchestration tools can increase productivity sixfold, currently only 12% of enterprises globally have these platforms, and only 18% maintain a formal inventory of their AI. In Mexico, the technology visibility gap is severe, with only 20% of enterprises in the country knowing exactly which AI capabilities are being used and in which areas they operate.
Furthermore, only 13% of enterprises in Mexico have a comprehensive inventory of their AI, and only 3% have orchestration platforms, despite 70% of Mexican executives believing that security-by-design architecture is crucial for scaling technology. According to the AI Productivity Survey by Censuswide and IBM, 94% of employees in Mexico believe AI will be critical to their jobs within the next 3 to 5 years, and 86% say AI has already improved their productivity. The survey shows that 67% of employees would switch employers to a company that proactively uses AI, and 40% say it allows them to focus on strategic tasks. However, the domestic market faces three major challenges: lack of training (affecting 49%), integration complexity (41%), and concerns about data privacy (39%).
Mauricio Torres, President and CEO of IBM Mexico, noted that digital sovereignty impacts any industry, and success no longer depends on storing information, but on governing it. He stated that enterprises need to process data in real-time and manage vast amounts of information, but within a governed model where they have control over their own data. He emphasized that this technological challenge is not exclusive to the public sector or large enterprises, but directly affects any organization, regardless of its size. Luis Felipe Guzmán, Data and AI Leader at IBM Mexico, explained that digital sovereignty is built on four pillars: data control, AI sovereignty, operational control of technology infrastructure, and overall governance of digital processes.
