The 5th Annual Mita TechTalks, the premier technology and venture capital event of the year in Latin America, was recently held from February 28th to March 1st at The St. Regis Resort Punta Mita.

“MITA Ventures hit the mark back in 2012 when it decided to invest in new technologies and the Internet, which is why it has positioned itself so strongly in North America, at the same time the Riviera Nayarit began its tourism recovery, which has also contributed to the success of the Mita TechTalks,” said Marc Murphy, Managing Director of the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau.

The Mita TechTalks have continued to grow and attract attention and gain a strong reputation on the international level. At this year’s event, the focus was on accelerator programs for Internet startups to help small tech businesses achieve benchmarks more quickly and with greater success.

The eyes of the tech world are increasingly on Mexico with Google Developers and Silicon Valley backing Mexican startups. And Mexico is rising to the challenge: “We’ve seen a difference in trends, that is, there are more Mexican investors from cities like Puebla, Monterrey, Guadalajara and Mexico City who are coming in to learn how these small businesses and startups work,” commented Pablo Solano of MITA Ventures.

Nearly 90 participants came to beautiful Punta Mita to talk tech and enjoy the incredible tourism offer here in Vallarta • Nayarit.
