In August 2023, Professor
Paul Gompers travelled to Latin America with the primary objective of exploring the region's entrepreneurial ecosystem. During his stay in Latin America, Professor Gompers engaged with numerous entrepreneurs, policymakers, as well as private equity and venture capital firms. His itinerary included visits to key countries in the region, such as Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Mexico. Additionally, he capitalized on the opportunity to reconnect with HBS alumni and friends of LARC, visiting with the HBS Club in Brazil, the Harvard Club in Argentina, and the HBS Club in Mexico. The insights gathered during his visit will be integrated into his upcoming course and book entitled Entrepreneurship Outside the Valley.
