In conversation with Eduardo Gonzalez, CEO of GIGA IT

Q. How does Giga IT ensure cultural fit and seamless collaboration between Latin American talent and your global clients?

Our approach is rooted in aligning our talent with the needs of our global clients, ensuring cultural fit and seamless collaboration. We work in similar time zones, which facilitate real-time communication. Our recruitment process focuses on selecting the top 1% of talent from LATAM, ensuring high cultural alignment, professionalism, and a deep understanding of each client’s business goals. This ensures smooth integration into our clients’ operations and helps maintain high standards of quality and innovation.

Q. With a 99% client retention rate across 30 countries, what strategies do you implement to maintain such high customer satisfaction?

Our 99% client retention rate reflects our commitment to building long-term partnerships where we go beyond being just a service provider. We see ourselves as strategic partners, fully immersing ourselves in our clients’ challenges. Their problems become our own, and we work collaboratively to deliver solutions that create real business impact—whether through reducing costs, optimizing ROI, or eliminating manual tasks.

By truly understanding their needs and focusing on outcomes that drive tangible value, we ensure our clients achieve their goals. Additionally, our commitment to continuous learning and staying at the forefront of technological trends allows us to consistently deliver innovative solutions that earn their trust and loyalty.

Q. How do you approach the evolving challenges in data science and AI to help your clients stay competitive?

We adopt a data-centric approach at GIGA IT, seeing data as a critical component for business success. Our data science solutions include predictive analytics, machine learning models, and advanced visualizations. These allow our clients to make strategic decisions based on actionable insights, helping them stay competitive in a fast-evolving landscape. We work closely with clients to build custom data pipelines that are tailored to their unique needs, allowing them to unlock the full potential of their data for both short-term gains and long-term growth.

Q. Can you share a success story that highlights Giga IT’s impact on a client’s business, particularly through one of your data science or AI solutions?

One of our proudest achievements involved a partnership with a leading company in the finance sector. We developed a solution to streamline their financial close processes using robotic automation. By automating manual tasks, we reduced the time required for financial reconciliations from 3 hours to just 15 minutes. Not only did this drastically improve operational efficiency, but it also reduced costs, highlighting our ability to deliver impactful digital solutions that enhance both performance and profitability.
