During a recent business-related trip to the Caribbean, I had a few thoughts and observations on the state of UX and digital adoption in Latin America and the Caribbean.
A recent World Bank study stated that Latin American and Caribbean markets have some of the lowest digital technology adoption rates in the world. Nearly 360 million residents in the region don't use digital technologies available to them. I experienced this firsthand recently when consulting one of the leading brands in the region.
Why is that? According to the World Bank report, the lack of adoption is due to four barriers: irrelevant content, lack of abilities, trust and safety, and low affordability.

User interface (UI) and user experience (UX) go hand in hand, so much so that they are usually lumped together in a single term. UX depends upon the implementation of responsive and intuitive UI. It's such a crucial part of the design of new technology that newcomers to the field may feel out of their depth when designing UI/UX schemes.
Implementing proper UI is such a vital part of building new applications that even newcomers will need to get a feel for what works and what doesn't. To help them along their path, 13 members of Forbes Technology Council offer insight into the crucial elements of UI design and how it impacts overall user experience.

Usually, user experience (UX) of the design aspect gets overlooked until something goes awry. Understanding the value of UX and proffering it the consideration it deserves when developing or planning a site can help prevent problems in the future – and save businesses and brands trouble, money and time.
Fifty-two percent of users who shop online said that page speed affects their commitment to the online store. In the current competitive environment of ecommerce where revenue is expected to reach $4 trillion USD by 2020, delivering exceptional UX needs to be a priority.
Therefore, a business or brand has a goal of optimizing the user experience to boost sales. As Steve Krug, a UX expert said, “If someone thinks or doubts, the website usability is inefficient.”
