Matt Barrie, CEO of Freelancer.com, the world’s largest outsourcing marketplace, will be the keynote speaker at the launch of eCommerce Day in Santiago, Chile.
Billed as the most important day in Latin America on eCommerce, online and mobile banking and online entrepreneurship, the event aims to educate Chilean businesses on the power of getting online and its importance to the economic well-being of the country.
“I’m honored to be the headline speaker at Chile eCommerce Day,” said Matt Barrie. “As the world becomes more connected, small and medium sized businesses must keep pace. The online economy is a multi-billion dollar business, Internet sales in Chile alone were estimated at $550 million in 2010. Anyone who doesn’t adapt to the needs of their consumer base will be left behind,” he continued.
Mr. Barrie will be joined by business leaders from across Latin America, eager to share knowledge and learn how the use of online outsourcing has shaped the state of entrepreneurship and eCommerce across the world.
“Latin America, and Chile in particular, are in a prime position to be the next Silicon Valley. The alliance of development initiatives like eCommerce Day and a powerful site like Freelancer.com are a winning combination for any start-up,” Barrie concluded.
Santiago, Chile will host eCommerce Day on May 25th. To discuss Chile’s role in the international Internet economy with Matt Barrie, use the contact information below.
