The program will act as a bridge between the
two hemispheres, enabling U.S. companies to find opportunities in
the South.
Program Companies will stay at Selina and
collaborate with the local ecosystem to build their professional
home in Miami.
IDB Lab, the innovation lab of the Inter-American Development
Bank (IDB) Group, and TechnoArt, the global platform for the growth
of technology startups, launched the Miami LAC Gateway, the
alliance's first program specifically designed for Latin American
and Caribbean companies to venture into the U.S. market. This was
done in partnership with leading regional players including
Univision Communications, Delta Airlines, PAG Law, PCGA, Lazo,
Miami Exchange, FIU Miami Dade County, The Beacon Console, Venture
Miami, MDIA and more.
U.S.-based companies looking for expansion opportunities in
Latin America and the Caribbean will also benefit from the support
of IDB Lab and TechnoArt.
By establishing a strategic base of operations in the city of
Miami, startups will be able to grow their businesses by leveraging
IDB Lab and TechnoArt's networks of contacts. The program will
facilitate entrepreneurs' connections with local investors and
startups, accelerators, service providers and experts in the
companies' business areas, which will foster growth opportunities
and help entrepreneurs acquire new clients, identify strategic
partners and access capital to enable their business growth. IDB
Lab and TechnoArt are simultaneously launching the Gateway
platform, which allows companies to access a global marketplace
where they can sell their products online.
The participating companies have demonstrated their ability to
scale, have a technological base and an innovative business
model.
Among the participating companies: Crackthecode.pe,
Uplanner.com, Excuela.com, Ozaru.io, Nippy.la, Fiadoapp.com,
Jobecam.com, Clupp.com.mx, Jobbi.me, Artradelatam.com,
Legalify.app, B2gov.com, Intelligisgroup.com, Abacusexchange.org,
Doctor-cv.com, Medl.co
"This program supports Latin American and Caribbean startups in
their foray into the U.S. market, as well as U.S.-based companies
exploring new avenues of entry into our region. Gateway will create
impact by bridging the Americas that will open up investment
opportunities and new ways to support the growth of innovative
ecosystems," said Irene Arias Hofman, CEO of IDB Lab.
Mayor Daniella Levine Cava: “We welcome this opportunity to
support the tech ecosystem as it grows and expands its operation in
the region, and use our resources to provide new companies and
skilled entrepreneurs with a base to scale their business and build
the professional home in our innovative city.”
Tristan Jehan, GP at TechnoArt, added that "we look forward to
meeting the startups and supporting them with our connections in
the region. We believe this program will open up new growth
opportunities for both Latin America and Caribbean-based companies
and the Miami regional ecosystem. We are delighted to facilitate
this exciting initiative."
Miami's economic and technological momentum and its many
commonalities with Latin America and the Caribbean provide an ideal
backdrop for connecting U.S. capital and expertise with emerging
talent and innovation from Latin America and the Caribbean. The
program also opens opportunities for the city of Miami, which will
also benefit from building bridges with South America, making it
easier to attract more investors and capital and expand its
technology companies. According to a report published by IDB Lab,
Miami startups that have decided to go international create 4.6
times more value than those focused solely on the domestic market.
Miami Mayor Francis Suarez congratulated IDB Lab and TechnoArt for
launching the program in the city: "This is an excellent
opportunity for growth-stage companies to become part of Miami's
expanding technology ecosystem. We welcome new companies looking to
make their home in Miami and thank IDB Lab and TechnoArt for
choosing Miami as the hub for this extraordinary program," he
said.
Selina will provide an interim home for the companies and other
benefits that will help them in the initial stage of establishing
their professional home in the US.
Selina Co-founder and CEO, Rafael Museri said: “This is one more
way where Selina, TechnoArt and the Inter America Bank collaborate
to support entrepreneurs in their quest for new markets. We are
very excited to support these startups through mentorship, access
and accommodation and help them scale their business around the
world.”
