Snowflake Launches Operations in Chile

Snowflake has launched operations in Chile, citing the country's strong economy and startup ecosystem. The company will establish a local team to help organizations leverage its AI Data Cloud for data-driven innovation and governance. Snowflake aims to support Chile's digital transformation and expand its presence in Latin America.

The IMF lists Chile among the five largest economies https://www.imf.org/en/publications/weo/issues/2026/04/14/world-economic-outlook-april-2026 in Latin America. The StartupBlink Global Startup Ecosystem Index ranks Santiago among the top startup cities in the region, https://www.startupblink.com/startup-ecosystem/santiago-cl highlighting the country's potential as a beachhead for technology companies. These are just a few of the reasons why Snowflake is excited to announce that it has initiated operations in Chile. “Chilean organizations are ready to move fast on AI, and we're here to empower them to transform AI ambition into real business outcomes,” explained Bruno Barreto, Vice President of Latin America at Snowflake. “Snowflake enables organizations to innovate from a shared, trusted view of their data, helping them scale AI while maintaining the governance and security that enterprises demand.” Customers throughout the country and the rest of Latin America are increasingly turning to Snowflake, and now we will have a dedicated local team explaining the value of the Snowflake AI Data Cloud where Snowflake customers, partners and data providers can unite siloed data, discover and securely share data, and derive value from their data sets in secure and governed ways that also allow compliance with an ever-evolving regulatory landscape. Snowflake already delivers a single data experience that spans clouds and geographies, but we are thrilled to establish a physical presence in Chile and prove that with the right partner, any business can be data-driven. Danilo Lázaro, Regional Manager for Latin America and the Caribbean at Snowflake, highlighted Chile's relevance as a technological hub in the region. “Chile is moving steadily toward a digital infrastructure model that is highly attractive to Snowflake,” he said. “The country stands out for its combination of a solid institutional framework, high levels of connectivity and highly qualified professionals, positioning it as a strategic player and a benchmark on the continent.” Chile has long been recognized for its pro-business environment and strong institutional framework. With Chile and the Latin America region continuing to accelerate their adoption of cloud technologies, there is a huge need to unlock the value of the data that companies are generating to make data-driven decisions that will fuel future growth and innovation. Chile is an important foothold in making Snowflake a truly global company.
