I’ve just come back from a very energizing trip to Lima, Peru, a country that’s becoming a benchmark for entrepreneurship in Latin America. I lived there many years ago, and it was great to return and see a vibrant community of innovators hard at work.
I had the honor of being recognized with the Latin American Entrepreneur of the Year Award at San Ignacio de Loyola University. During the award ceremony, I shared my story with over 1,000 enthusiastic students who are keenly interested in entrepreunership. I was also a speaker at C.R.E.C.E. (which means “Grow” in Spanish), an annual regional event held this year in Lima (Congreso Regional de Emprendimiento y Comercio Electrónico) and at LimaValley which further fueled my excitement for Lima as a start-up hub.
Check out some of the press coverage by the likes of Economía y Negocios, Terra Peru, El Comercio, Willax TV and La Republica so I can share with you my enthusiasm for what's happening in Peru.
