LatAm to NYC In the spirit of the Olympics, we’re welcoming Latin American tech entrepreneurs to NYC for the very first Latin American-focused World to NYC: LatAm to NYC! Getting here wasn’t easy—there were over 100 applicants from 11 Latin American countries (Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico, Panama, Peru, and Venezuela) vying for one of the 50 spots in the delegation. Accepted participants represent nearly 40 companies in different fields of technology such as media-tech, mobile-tech, and education-tech. Starting August 6th, the delegates will spend three days learning more about the New York City tech scene and the different facets of successfully bringing their tech company to New York City. “Before coming to this program, an office in New York City was just a second option, a ‘Plan B.’ But after attending this program, we know we will be missing a big opportunity if we don’t plan on being here very soon!” - Carlos Rozo, former World to NYC delegate Photo Credit: Patricia Bayley/NYCEDC
