Smeldy Ramirez Rufino’s Expertise I'm a Private Sector Development Specialist at IDB Lab, the innovation laboratory of the Inter-American Development Bank that mobilizes financing, knowledge and connections to catalyze innovation for inclusion in Latin American and the Caribbean. Since joining the IDB Lab in 2009, I've worked in more than 65 projects to promote and develop opportunities for under-served communities, creating access to financial and basic services; improving capacity building programs to meet labor market demands; and strengthening small and medium sized enterprises. Through these operations, I've mobilized more than US65 million by motivating the participation of public and private sector actors and striking hundreds of strategic partnerships. My current field of work is related to the implementation and adaptation of the 4th industrial revolution technologies like A.I., Blockchain, IoT, and Robotics in social innovation projects. Due the COVID-19 pandemic I've oriented my technical knowledge to promote the digital transformation of micro, small and medium businesses so they can reach their client base as well as to help them send and receive electronic payments. Among my notable projects are the use of autonomous unmanned vehicles to improve access to basic health services in areas where the topography prevents rural populations from receiving primary care, and the use of drone technology to supervise and manage construction sites for major infrastructure, effectively reducing costs and increasing efficiencies in Bolivia, Panama and the Dominican Republic. Before joining IDB Lab, I've worked as a Science and Technology Specialist under the Information Technology unit of IDB in the Dominican Republic (1999), and as an Information Systems Manager for Sara Lee Knit (1996). Throughout the years, I've worked in Haiti, Puerto Rico, the United States and the Dominican Republic. I hold a master's degree in Business Administration from the University of Quebec in Montreal (UQAM), a master's degree in Economic Sciences from the Pontifical Catholic University Mother and Teacher (PUCMM), and a degree in Engineering in Information Science and Technology from PUCMM
