  "account": "Argentina showcased its AI potential at \"Argentina at Silicon Valley,\" a full-day event hosted on October 7 in San Francisco during SF Tech Week. The event, organized by the Embassy of Argentina in the United States, drew over 500 founders, investors, and executives. Argentine Ambassador Alec Oxenford emphasized that Argentina can provide both the skilled engineers to build AI and the energy to run it. The country's knowledge economy exported $9.6 billion in 2025, an 8.1% increase, and employs more than 285,000 people. The sector now accounts for 53% of Argentina's services exports and ranks as the third-largest export complex. Industry body Argencon reported that knowledge-economy exports crossed $10 billion for the first time in the twelve months through March, up 11.7%. During the event, Argentine tech services firms shared strategies for winning U.S. clients, with a focus on specialization and trust. Panelists discussed how AI shifts value from coding to solving business problems and the importance of turning engineering expertise into measurable outcomes for U.S. clients. Argentina's potential to host AI infrastructure was highlighted, citing its top-tier talent, energy resources, and favorable climate.",
