Innovative companies from all over the world have established headquarters in Miami to run their Latin American operations. Florida is a very attractive state for entrepreneurs due to its tax benefits at federal and local levels.

This vibrant environment coupled with logistical ease is the perfect match and has made Miami a hub for Latin America's connection to the world, a true showcase of LATAM's most compelling innovations.
Every leading player in the tech innovation ecosystem will be at eMerge Americas seeking or offering solutions and fresh approaches to main trends such as digitalization, robotization, AI, big data, IoT, drones, biotech, cleantech, fintech, infrastructure, and others.
