ABOUT US

WHY HAITI?
As the world’s first black independent republic, Haiti’s history and culture make it the ideal stage to gather global industry leaders, entrepreneurs and creatives in a forum to exchange and tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges in innovation and sustainability.
WHO ATTENDS?
The Haiti Tech Summit is for local and international industry leaders, entrepreneurs, investors, digital marketers and creatives interested in transforming the world via entrepreneurship.
