Entrepreneurship and regional summits in Ecuador

Overview

In October 2026, the GET Forum in Quito, organized by the Inter-American Development Bank Group, brought together entrepreneurs, investors, and public sector representatives to discuss economic growth. President Daniel Noboa emphasized the importance of human talent and creating opportunities for youth to strengthen economic activity. Key discussions focused on technological skill development, increasing access to venture capital, and establishing policies to bolster innovation ecosystems.

Following this, Ecuador is scheduled to host further regional gatherings in November 2026. These include the ‘Incubadoraslat’ summit in Loja, which focuses on artificial intelligence, creative industries, and financing alternatives for startups. Additionally, the province of El Oro will host the ‘Tomando Mi Nación’ religious conference, featuring international speakers and various pastoral and community programs.
