Our Mission

Latin America has traditionally played a passive role in the global technology industry, trading skills, resources and market opportunities at a discount. The LADP exists to change that: our mission is to accelerate the development of frontier technologies in the region, and to move the region from a battleground for technological appropriation to a strategic actor in tech-driven geopolitics.

What we do

Map of Leading Deep Tech Ventures: Thorough scouting and showcasing of startups in sectors like AI, biotech, and blockchain, among others
Detailed Analysis of Funding Gaps: Insightful analysis addressing challenges for both founders and investors, highlighting regulatory hurdles and market dynamics.
Strategic Roadmap for Investment: A set of actionable recommendations designed to bridge the funding gap and boost the investment landscape in deep tech.
Coalition of Key Actors: Formation of a coalition of investors, founders, policymakers, and support services to drive ecosystem growth and foster collaboration.

Our Research

Two reports. The first maps 2,566 deep tech ventures in the region and the capital that stops before Series A. The second examines five digital identity case studies, and what they can carry against the privacy risks AI brings.
