Miami will once again be the epicenter of biotechnological innovation and entrepreneurship. From November 7th to 8th, the city will host the second edition of BIOHUNT Summit Miami 2023, a joint initiative between The Ganesha Lab and the Cambridge Innovation Center (CIC) Miami. The purpose: to bridge Latin American biotech startups with the global biotechnology ecosystem.
The schedule is divided into two thematic sessions. The first, set for November 7th, will focus on investment and expansion opportunities for Latin startups in international markets. It will be a unique opportunity for entrepreneurs to understand the dynamics and challenges of the biotech business outside their borders.
The second day is dedicated to the art of networking. Participants will have the perfect stage to establish relationships, exchange experiences, and familiarize themselves with the US business culture. Such interactions are crucial for any company aspiring to have a global presence.
Latin America is in the spotlight.
More than just an event, BIOHUNT Summit Miami 2023 is a showcase for Latin America. Over 20 startups from Chile, Mexico, Uruguay, Argentina, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Brazil will display the region’s innovative capabilities. The setting will be conducive for these companies to present their projects to a select group of investors, who will also provide valuable feedback to refine their proposals.
