Event description

The Canadian Trade Commissioner Service (TCS) in Chile, in collaboration with the Government of Ontario, will organize an ICT trade mission to Chile from September 7 to 10, 2026, alongside the 11th América Digital LATAM Congress 2026. The event is recognized as one of the region’s leading executive forums on digital transformation.

América Digital brings together approximately 4,500 to 5,000 senior decision-makers, including C-suite executives, Chief Information Officers (CIOs), Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and digital transformation leaders. Participants represent key sectors such as:

  • banking

The event serves as a premier platform for Latin America’s digital leaders to connect and explore solutions in:

  • cybersecurity
  • artificial intelligence
  • fintech

Within this context, Canada will lead a targeted ICT trade mission designed to deliver tangible commercial outcomes for participating companies.

  • high-profile visibility
