EtMday 2026 to bring entrepreneurs and investors together in Santiago, with Spain as guest country

EtMday 2026, the International Entrepreneurship, Innovation and Investment Meeting organized by Emprende tu Mente (EtM), will take place from November 19 to 21 at Parque Bicentenario de Vitacura in Santiago, Chile. Spain will participate as guest country, with a program aimed at fostering ties between the two business ecosystems.

The event will bring together entrepreneurs, startups, large companies, investors, universities and public institutions. Its program will combine conferences, project presentations and networking spaces designed to facilitate financing, collaboration and internationalization opportunities.

According to figures provided by the organizers, the 2025 edition brought together more than 56,000 attendees, including 11,800 entrepreneurs, more than 650 large companies and 80 investment funds. EtM also recorded more than 110,000 connections among participants. This indicator measures contacts and does not, in itself, equate to investments or contracts being formalized.

For 2026, the call for applications for free startup booths received 2,378 applications for more than 780 spaces, according to the event’s information materials. Spain’s participation will include its own pavilion and international business spaces.

Daniel Daccarett, co-founder of Emprende tu Mente, is one of the driving forces behind this Chilean nonprofit organization, whose work aims to bring entrepreneurs together with large companies, investors and other institutions. In addition to EtMday, the organization holds meetings and discussions throughout the year.

From a legal market perspective, the relationships formed may give rise to advisory needs in financing, shareholders’ agreements, commercial contracts, intellectual property and internationalization. The participation of stakeholders from different jurisdictions adds interest for professionals advising on cross-border investments and projects.

The materials provided do not identify any participating law firms or legal teams.
