The 9th edition of the IDB Lab’s WeXchange forum is here! On December 1st and 2nd, women STEMpreneurs, mentors, investors, and key players in the Latin American and Caribbean entrepreneurial ecosystems will come together to connect through inspiring talks, thematic panels, and networking opportunities.
This year’s virtual forum, sponsored by We-Fi, seeks to highlight the women STEMpreneurs that are leading the economic recovery in Latin America and the Caribbean.
In addition to opportunities to connect with investors, mentors, experts and emerging female talent in the region, attendees will get a chance to witness the LAC Women Founders Accelerator Demo Day – part of an acceleration program for women-led startups in Latin America and the Caribbean, organized by WeXchange/IDB Lab and Google for Startups in collaboration with Centraal.
Unlike a traditional webinar, the virtual forum is designed to replicate the dynamism of past in-person events and provide attendees with an engaging experience.
