LatAm Corporate VC & Accelerators: Are They Working?

In the era of corporations being disrupted by startups across every industry, every major company in Latin America is looking to respond leveraging various strategies. Collaborating with startups using an open innovation approach is one of the widest used strategies to bring innovation into a corporation.

However, few efforts have been successful in Mexico and Latin America, mainly due to cultural clashes between entrepreneurs and executives. Learn from the trenches of working with some of the major corporations in the world on how to make successful this approach and hear from entrepreneurs that have signed global agreements with major corporations.

This panel is an effort to bring real life learning to give entrepreneurs a glimpse on the corporate accelerators and corporate venture capital and give executives from different companies an idea on how to bring startup innovation into their business core.
