ABOUT THIS EVENT /
Volcano Innovation Summit
Is a global initiative that acts as a platform to exchange visions, experiences, and ideas shaping the future of Latin America and beyond. Taking advantage of Guatemala’s unique position as a bridge between North, Central, and South America, we continue expanding the region’s global presence from Antigua Guatemala, a place where dialogue, connection, collaboration and opportunities naturally converge.
Each year, Volcano Innovation Summit brings together a curated community of founders, investors, innovators, and leaders from around the world who are shaping what’s next for the region. The 7th edition of Volcano Innovation Summit will take place September 5th to 7th, 2026, in Antigua Guatemala.
Join the community that believes in the power of connection to move Latin America forward!
