You are invited to the Berkeley Haas LatAm Business Forum! https://www.berkeleyhaas-latamconference.com/
We are excited to host a conference with the goal of fostering a conversation about the opportunities and challenges of doing business in Latin America. We will bring together a group of leaders, students and professors who are committed to drive innovation and impact in the region.
Why LatAm now? (extracted from Atlantico’s Digital Transformation Report 2023):
- *Tech companies market cap as % of GDP is 1.8%*, in the US that number is 64% (Q2 2023)
- *VC investments as a % of GDP is 0.1% (2022)*, vs India (0.7%) or Southeast Asia (0.3%), with not that much capital founders managed to generate $82b in market cap at exit
- Large list of exciting tech companies valued at $1b+ that will soon go public creating a multiplier effect for the entire region and ecosystem.
