Section J, information and communication, holds 54,998 Chilean company records as of 2026-08-03, 54,179 of them active. By region, Metropolitana de Santiago leads with 36,312 (66% of the section), followed by Valparaíso (4,505) and Biobío (2,576). The largest divisions are 62 (computer programming, consultancy and related activities, 31,547) and 61 (telecommunications, 7,415); 4 further divisions complete it. That is 1.6% of the Chile registry in this build.
Division 62 is the 'tech and software' core: software houses, IT consultancies and integrators, the first accounts and the reseller channel for any SaaS or devtool entering the region. 63 adds hosting, SaaS operators and portals; 61 the ISPs and carriers; 58-60 media and publishing. Our LATAM Tech & Software package is this section's divisions 62 and 63 across all seven countries. In Chile, 100% of these rows carry an ISIC class; size is known for 42%; the registry publishes no website or e-mail; 7,714 were registered in the 12 months before the extraction. An economic activity is registered for about half of Chilean RUTs, so this section undercounts companies that never registered one with the SII.
