What is the GET Forum
In 2026, the GET Forum continues to grow, becoming part of an ambitious regional platform for strengthening entrepreneurship ecosystems and driving early-stage investment across Latin America and the Caribbean.
As a high-level, business-oriented event, the Forum aims to create a space where talent, capital, and knowledge come together to drive innovative solutions with scalable impact in the region.
The Forum will take place in Quito, Ecuador, from October 5 to 7, 2026, under a public-private model. This year it is co-organized by the IDB Group in partnership with the Global Entrepreneurship Network (GEN), the Alliance for Entrepreneurship and Innovation of Ecuador (AEI), and the Government of the Republic of Ecuador.
Why these two events go together
The same audience, one continuous week
Founders, investors, and ecosystem builders traveling to Quito for the GET Forum are, to a large extent, the same audience that builds the venture capital ecosystem that Connect atVentures brings together every year.
From regional scale to local scale
The GET Forum opens the conversation from a regional perspective: capital, technology, and public policy for Latin America and the Caribbean. Connect atVentures brings it down to earth the next day, into the Ecuadorian ecosystem: its founders, its investors, its real cases.
Without leaving Quito
Because they are consecutive and in the same city, attendees can experience both spaces without coordinating a second trip: three days of global agenda, followed by a day focused on the local ecosystem.
