SUMMARY:Ecosistema de Innovación en salud / Ecosystem Innovation in Healthcare
DESCRIPTION:As healthcare systems face increasing complexity\, innovation is no longer driven by isolated breakthroughs—but by the strength of the ecosystems behind them. \nIn this session\, Kevin Koym explores how interconnected networks of entrepreneurs\, institutions\, investors\, and policymakers are reshaping the future of healthcare. Drawing from Tech Ranch’s global work building innovation ecosystems\, he will share how collaboration (not competition) is the key to accelerating solutions that scale across borders. \nThis conversation will challenge traditional approaches to innovation and offer a new perspective: one where healthcare transformation is built through intentional connections\, shared infrastructure\, and cross-sector alignment. \nIf you’re working in health\, policy\, or innovation\, and want to understand how to be part of something bigger than a single solution\, this session is for you. \nRegister here: https://beacons.ai/economia.guadalupe

SUMMARY:Why Austin is overtaking Silicon Valley for international startups — and how to prepare for the USA ecosystem before you even arrive
DESCRIPTION:On April 1st\, 2026\, at Progetto Manifattura in Rovereto\, Kevin Koym will join Federico Stefani and Francesca Gottardi for a conversation about a shift many global founders are starting to notice: Austin is quickly becoming a powerful gateway for international startups entering the U.S. market.

This discussion brings together entrepreneurs\, ecosystem leaders\, and policymakers who believe that when the right networks connect\, innovation moves faster and global opportunities become real pathways\, not just ambitions. The session will be followed by networking and an aperitivo to continue the conversation.
