DEXTER's commitment to an 'AI Officer', a pioneer in private equity

With the birth of DEXTERIn 2019, and the creation of its first organisational chart, the company made a pioneering move in the private equity sector to establish the figure of the 'AI Officer'. The starting point was that Artificial Intelligence was not a promise of the future but a strategic imperative that is reshaping business leadership at an unprecedented speed.

This is what, six years on, has just been confirmed by the 'Digitization on Boards' report, produced by Amrop, a global benchmark in executive search and consulting. This new study delves into the key competencies required by leaders to successfully navigate the AI era and analyses the context that is leading to the emergence of a new managerial profile: the Chief AI Officer (CAIO).

In the case of DEXTERDylan Ramírez holds this position in the firm, who from the beginning opened the focus beyond what is conventionally meant by New Technologies or Systems, as departments of any consolidated company. As the executive points out, "AI is not just another tool, an option that can be chosen or not, but an absolute driver of business transformation, which at DEXTER we apply transversally to each and every area of development. AI has already become an essential part of our business model"..

The impact of AI reaches the redefinition of internal processes and strengthens the solutions provided to customers. It has become an essential competitive advantage and is fully integrated into the company's operations, both in its day-to-day operations and in its strategic plan.
