Allbiotech is a nonprofit organization aiming to promote the adoption of the bioeconomy as a driver for economic growth in Latin America; increasing innovation and competitivity. To achieve this, we are setting the biggest network of outstanding young leaders in Latin America. We have organized two major events to get together the most promising 100 young (u-35) leaders in life sciences and several industrial, academic, and opinion leaders to discuss the significant challenges for biotechnology in LATAM. The first edition took place in Santiago, Chile in 2017, and the second edition took place in Guanajuato, Mexico in 2018. In 2019, we are organizing the 1st Latin American Bioeconomy Forum. Key themes: 1. Education and training. 2. Science communication and public perception 3. Entrepreneurship and technology transfer 4. Public policies and regulation 5. Equity and Diversity
