Latin American technology-based companies (also called Tecnolatinas) born outside Brazil generated most of their value within the region. In 2020, nearly three quarters of all non-Brazilian Tecnolatinas' market value was generated by startups with a regional geographic strategy. In contrast to the successful local approach adopted by Brazilian Tecnolatinas, only five percent of the market value of non-Brazilian startups came from businesses with a local approach.
