M360 LATAM 2026 Returns to Mexico City to Spotlight Winning Strategies for the Digital Era

5 March 2026, Barcelona: Just weeks before Mexico takes centre stage as host of the 2026 football World Cup, the region’s digital ecosystem will take the field to discuss how the region can turn technological potential into a digital victory. M360 LATAM 2026 will return to Mexico on 13–14 May at the Hyatt Regency Mexico City in Polanco, bringing together industry leaders and innovators to explore how next-generation technologies are driving real impact across Latin America. The 2026 edition will mark the first participation of Vivek Badrinath, Director General of the GSMA, appointed last year, who will deliver the opening keynote address.

A platform for debate, networking and commercial opportunities, M360 LATAM’s agenda will focus on key topics including 5G use cases for growth, cybersecurity, data management, digital trust and tech talent in the age of automation. As an overarching theme, the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) will run throughout the conference — from debates on AI-powered networks to explorations of innovative business models. The regional awards will be back for their third edition, now as the GLOMO LATAM Awards, celebrating the innovators and changemakers redefining Latin America. Submissions for the Social Impact category open today and will be accepted through 10 April.

In its 13th edition, the Latin American Congress on Digital Transformation (CLTD), organised by ASIET, the GSMA and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), will embrace the World Cup spirit under the tagline ‘The Digital Ecosystem in Play.’ The public policy forum will bring together public and private sector leaders to discuss the key strategies needed for the region to compete in the global digital arena and promote digital inclusion. Topics on the agenda include pro-investment regulation, satellite connectivity, spectrum management, early warning systems, industrial digitalisation and bridging the digital divide.

“This M360 LATAM takes place at a pivotal moment in Latin America’s market evolution, as the region stands at a crossroads between accelerating investment or falling behind in digital competitiveness. I look forward to engaging with industry leaders and policymakers to strengthen collaboration and unlock a more resilient, inclusive and innovation-driven future for the region,” said Vivek Badrinath, Director General of the GSMA.
