MAY 29TH / 2PM / VANCOUVER CONVENTION CENTER
The Future is Human: Powered by People, Inspired by Latin American Culture & Its Plazas
At the heart of this session lies a powerful question:
Can human connection be the real driver of the next tech revolution?
What if the next tech revolution didn’t come from code alone but from community, culture, and creativity? In this interactive session hosted by Latincouver and the LCBC Program, we invite you into the “Plaza”, a powerful metaphor drawn from Latin American life, where ideas are exchanged, relationships are built, and innovation begins. Discover how Latincouver is creating global bridges for funding entities, investors, and policymakers to connect with Latin America’s rising tech talent and thriving innovation ecosystems.


WHEN THE CONFERENCE ENDS, THE FIESTA BEGINS!
Wrap up your Web Summit day with purpose and energy at After Hours at the Plaza — a Latin American-style business social hosted by Latincouver and the Latin-Canadian Business Council. Network with founders, innovators, and global professionals over music, bites, and bold ideas.
$15 in advance / $20 at the door (before fees)
*This is not an official Web Summit event.
