EtMday 2025 is gearing up to take over Santiago this November, promising to be the largest gathering of entrepreneurship, innovation, and investment in Latin America. From November 20–22, more than 50,000 people are expected to gather at Parque Bicentenario in Vitacura, turning the city into a vibrant meeting point for founders, investors, and industry leaders.
Connecting the Unlikely
At the heart of Emprende Tu Mente (EtM) lies a simple yet powerful idea: bringing together people and organizations that would not normally cross paths. This year, that mission will be on display with 500 traditional businesses, 400 startups, 63 large corporations, and 115 partners sharing the same space.
“Corporations are increasingly validating the value of working with startups and tapping into innovation,” said Daniel Daccarett, co-founder of EtM.
“That is precisely what EtMday is about, showing the real benefits of connecting unlikely pairs.” he continued.
India Steps into the Spotlight
For the first time in the event’s history, India will be the official guest country. The South Asian giant has built one of the most dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystems in the world, with over 160,000 registered startups, more than 100 unicorns, and 1.6 million direct jobs created.
“We are eager to deepen our relationship with Chile and create more opportunities for collaboration between our nations,” noted Abhilasha Joshi, India’s Ambassador to Chile, during the launch event at Sky Costanera.
A Three-Day Hub for Innovation
Over three days, Parque Bicentenario will transform into a temporary “entrepreneurship city.” Attendees will find 1,000 stands across 12 hectares, a variety of themed pitch competitions, from Impactaland to Tesla Pitch, mentorship opportunities, and interactive experiences designed to inspire and connect.
Another highlight is the new EtMroomies initiative, which will host entrepreneurs from across Chile in the homes of the EtM community, offering them the chance to fully immerse themselves in the event.

EtMday 2025 will welcome an impressive roster of international speakers, including:
- Patrick J. McGinnis, creator of the concept FOMO
- Juan de Antonio, co-founder of Cabify
- Ravi Hutheesing, cultural futurist
- Joan Melé, ethical banking advocate
- Nacho Dean, first person to walk around the world
