Show format & repertoire

The anatomy of an episode

Inteligencia de Negocios 20/20 is structured around a rigorous three-act spine in every episode, complemented by a rotating repertoire of specialized segments. Not every segment appears in every episode: they enter when the topic, the evidence or the moment calls for them.

The spine

In every episode

Three core movements anchor every recording, creating a familiar, reliable arc that carries the listener from immediate scenario to deep counterpoint to clear action.

Every episode · 1 min

Cold Open

Apertura

Who leads: Carlos Miranda Levy (the provocation)

A 60-second scenario at the edge of a real business or technology decision that frames the episode's central question before the hosts say hello. It can be real or an illustrative case, always clearly labelled.

The counterpoint

Carlos frames the tension and the stakes immediately, setting the table with a question that executive leaders and professionals face right now.

Every episode · 15–25 min

The Conversation

La conversación

Who leads: Carlos Miranda Levy, Mitsuteru «Mite» Nishio & Fabiola Herrera (with Ana Carolina Blanco Hache)

The main table debate exploring the week's core topic without softball questions or script-bound consensus. Built on four distinct professional vantage points that test every claim.

The counterpoint

Carlos opens models and moonshots; Mite demands the KPIs and how we would measure them; Fabiola grounds what has to work in operations and regulation; Ana Carolina brings the legal, intellectual property and media lens when contracts, rights or creative productions are at stake.

Every episode · 1–2 min (The close)

The Way Forward

Rumbo a Seguir

Who leads: Each host in turn

The closing movement of every episode: each host at the table closes with one single sentence through their own professional lens. Together they form a thirty-second synthesis, not separate speeches.

The counterpoint

Mite gives «the number to watch» (a measurable indicator); Carlos gives «the what-if to imagine» (a scenario); Fabiola names «who answers for it and what has to work»; Ana Carolina adds the legal or media takeaway when at the table.

Rotating segments

The lenses that enter by topic

A flexible repertoire of deep dives, historical echoes, future signposts, post-mortems of failed predictions, and direct listener questions that rotate across episodes.

Recurring · 3–4 min

What Happened to That? («¿Y Qué Fue?»)

¿Y Qué Fue?

Who leads: Carlos dissects the mental model; Mite checks the numbers; Fabiola traces execution

Where we revisit past predictions, hyped promises and consensus expectations that never happened—alongside the blind spots and unexpected turns nobody saw coming. We look back at confident forecasts from tech titans, consulting firms and industry consensus that collapsed, and why.

The counterpoint

Carlos examines why the conceptual model missed the mark; Mite audits the warning signals in the metrics that gave the game away; Fabiola pinpoints where regulatory realities and human execution broke down.

Recurring · 3–4 min

Been Here Before

Ya lo vivimos

Who leads: Carlos tells the historical echo; Mite brings the numbers of what changed

Something that feels brand-new and disruptive today, but that we have lived through before: calculators in classrooms, spreadsheets and accountants, the early web, mobile phones, banks pivoting, or Socrates warning that writing would ruin memory. What happened then, and what it tells us now.

The counterpoint

Carlos narrates the historical parallel and mental resistance; Mite grounds what economic indicators and market shifts actually occurred once the dust settled.

Recurring · 3–4 min

Fast Forward

Adelantar

Who leads: Carlos imagines scenarios; Mite sets the signposts

The topic projected five years out: two or three concrete scenarios from bold to cautious, avoiding sci-fi chrome in favor of plausible organizational realities.

The counterpoint

Carlos presents the transformative moonshot; Mite establishes the measurable milestone and leading indicator that tells us which future is taking hold.

Radar 20/20

Radar 20/20

Who leads: Mite reads the fact; Carlos reacts

Three to five industry updates from the week or month: one line of verified fact with source and date, followed by sharp commentary through the hosts' lenses.

The counterpoint

Mite curates objective developments across technology and enterprise; the table weighs the strategic impact beyond the press release.

Recurring · 1–2 min

The Tip

La jugada

Who leads: Alternating hosts

One practical move a leader or professional can make this week: a tool to test, a habit to adopt, a metric to baseline, or a specific question to ask in Monday morning's executive meeting.

The counterpoint

No abstract theory: a concrete, tested recommendation that translates the episode's debate into immediate workplace value.

Recurring · 3–5 min

People's Voice

La voz de la gente

Who leads: All hosts at the table

Real questions, pushback and concerns from listeners—never invented or seeded—read and answered through both lenses: scenario and measure. Critical pushback is prioritized.

The counterpoint

Listeners hold the hosts accountable. Carlos explores the wider context of the concern; Mite gives practical, numbered steps to navigate it.

Occasional · 1–1.5 min

A Word from Our Own House

Una palabra de nuestra casa

Who leads: Carlos Miranda Levy

A brief, clearly labelled note on what we are building and testing in our own organizations (such as ibizai or CEMI initiatives), kept visually and editorially separate from the editorial conversation.

The counterpoint

Total transparency: distinct background, dedicated tone, and explicit labelling so promotional content never masquerades as analysis.

Segments

Have a question or an unexpected turn to unpack?

For «People's Voice» or «What Happened to That?», we examine real listener questions and market cases through both lenses—the scenario and the metric.
