Argentina is at a pivotal moment for technology, innovation and global relevance: across crypto, artificial intelligence, biotech, robotics and other emerging fields, a new generation of builders and creators is shaping what comes next. That is why Aleph March returned for a new edition: Crecimiento's fifth pop-up city filled the four weeks of March 2026, organized by themes, and welcomed more than 3,000 people.
Inside the pop-up city lived daily talks, workshops, cultural activities, community-led meetups, partner activations and spaces for spontaneous collaboration. For the first time, an Aleph's programming was built for every emerging technology, with crypto as its backbone: an AI Day, vibecoding sessions and an Emerging Tech Day gathering talent in quantum computing, robotics and biotechnology.
The second week was the Institutional Week. Regulation Day ran its fifth edition on March 11, a full day dedicated to stablecoins, virtual asset taxonomy, compliance, corporate law in Web3 and AI regulation. And the Fintech Summit on the 13th connected builders with banks, fintechs and public institutions: Fiserv, MODO, Belo, the Government of the City of Buenos Aires, Link, Due, the Cámara Argentina Fintech and Rain took part.
Startups had a path of their own: pitch practices, mentorship, a Startup Day and a Demo Day with 10 startups presenting before funds like Newtopia, Draper Cygnus, Lucero Ventures and Alaya Capital.
The Aleph Hackathon ran its new edition with chapters in more than 12 cities across 5 countries, and marked the beginning of the new Builder Funnel, which continues with the Acceleration Season and the Startup World Cup. And at the close, Crecimiento presented its cumulative numbers from two years of movement: more than 15,000 people, more than 1,000 startups, more than 220 programs and more than 200 ecosystem partners.
The season it belongs to has its own note: Season 5.
