The Technology Investment of 2026: Does Your Company Have the Talent to Take Advantage of It?

This is an historic opportunity. According to data presented by IDC at the Dell Technologies Forum, Mexican companies will invest more than 600 billion pesos in ICT infrastructure during 2026. This figure, which exceeds the 572 billion invested this year, marks a turning point in our digital economy.

The Numbers You Should Know

  • Projected investment for 2026:600,000 MDP
  • Cybersecurity represents 12% of this investment
  • Projection for 2029:794,000 MDP
  • Leading sectors: financial services (investing up to 6% of their revenues) and retail

The Technology Investment Paradox

Alberto Arellano, director of IDC, made it clear: “Technology is considered a business enabler.” However, there is a worrying gap. Juan Francisco Aguilar, from Dell Technologies, points out that “everyone is talking about security, but few have really implemented it thoroughly in their organizations.”

This contradiction extends beyond cybersecurity. Companies allocate historic budgets, but do they have the talent to execute these strategies?

The Sectors That Will Set the Course

Artificial intelligence is consolidating itself as the main driver of these investments, especially in financial services and retail. By 2026, the logistics and transportation industry will lead the implementation of AI-powered cybersecurity, as projected by IDC.

The Question That Defines Success

With investments that will grow to 794 billion pesos by 2029, the critical question is no longer whether your company should invest in technology, but does it have the technology leaders capable of:

  • Implement cybersecurity strategies that truly protect digital assets
  • Lead AI projects that generate tangible value
  • Leverage investments in hardware, software and digital services
  • Stay competitive in a market that accelerates its digital transformation

Talent as a Decisive Competitive Advantage

As Mexican companies prepare for this unprecedented wave of investment, specialized talent becomes their most valuable asset. It's not just about having it, but about having the professionals who can turn it into results.
