LatAm Tech Gateway x Argentina
LatAm Tech Gateway x Argentina is a curated, high-level gathering designed to connect Germany’s innovation ecosystem with the rapidly evolving deep tech landscape across Latin America.
Jointly hosted by German Accelerator—a program funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWE)—and the Embassy of the Republic of Argentina, the event brings together stakeholders from industry, government, research, venture capital, and the startup ecosystem.
We will highlight how AI-powered deep tech is transforming Latin America’s strategic industries—Mining, Energy, Agribusiness, Space, and Health—with a focus that goes beyond “AI as software” and into AI embedded in industrial and scientific innovation (automation, resource efficiency, biotech breakthroughs, and next-generation production systems).
As Latin America emerges as a strategic hub for industrial deep tech—driven by scientific talent, unique resources, and globally scalable ventures—new opportunities open for German startups, corporates, and investors. Within this trend, Argentina stands out as a key focal point for co-development, venture-clienting, applied R&D partnerships, and cross-border investment.
