Epic Origins

During November 2019, after nearly 2 years of deep preparation, CJBS would celebrate its first “Latin American Business Summit” (LABS) in Santiago, Chile. A 7-day event, 47+ well-known speakers from multiple fields, 300+ attendees worldwide from 8 nations and 9 countries officially represented by their Embassies. Just a few weeks before its beginning, the host country suffered an unprecedented social unrest which forced CBA team to cancel it, leaving hundreds of decision-makers waiting for a new possibility to interact with peers.

CBA gathered all the lessons learned to satisfy its community as soon as possible. However, 2020 COVID hit the world. Multiple webinars, digital networking events with diverse people and investment opportunities shared gave the team a unique approached to add real value to its growing community, reaching over 26,000 investors, entrepreneurs, and managers from around the globe. In 2021 LABS was launched with over 600 attendees in a 6-month online event taught by Cambridge professors and international practitioners from multiple countries, reveling the power of collaboration.
