The Centro de Análisis para la Investigación en Innovación, A.C. (CAIINNO), is a Mexican think tank established by individuals who completed their studies abroad with the Fulbright scholarship and decided to return to Mexico to bring about positive change in the country.

Their work has led them to receive national and international acclaim. For instance, they recently designed a project that was selected by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) during its call for 'proposals for Latin America's and the Caribbean's recovery from COVID-19'. Their proposal was the only one selected from Mexico and one of the ten chosen worldwide from among the nearly 300 received by the IDB.

In 2020, the National Institute for Access to Information (INAI) honored them with the 'Award for Innovation and Best Practices in the Protection of Personal Data', on account of the development and implementation of an artificial intelligence. In 2023 the INAI honored them with a special mention in the Innovation Award.

In addition, CAIINNO has carried out activities and collaborations with Mexican and international agencies, such as the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the Latin American Integration Association, and the United Nations Development Program, among others.

HOW DO WE DO IT?

Our systematic approach ensures effective results through 7 fundamental stages of collaborative work

1

Problem, challenge or opportunity identification

We detect and clearly define the challenge to be addressed through research and context analysis

2

Preliminary analysis of the problem, challenge or opportunity

We conduct an in-depth study to understand the causes, effects, and dimensions of the identified problem

3

Identification of possible solutions

We generate multiple solution alternatives based on evidence and best practices

4

Action plan development

We create a detailed strategy with specific objectives, resources, and timeline

5

Proposal, action or solution development

We develop the final solution integrating all elements of the action plan

6

Implementation

We execute the proposed solution with continuous monitoring and necessary adjustments
