Core offering

Emprediem designs and delivers training programs, impact mentoring, commercialization support, and networking events for entrepreneurs and artisans across Chile, with a particular focus on women-led and sustainable businesses. The company also operates physical retail stores (Primeros Pueblos) and an e-commerce platform that commercialize artisan products under fair-trade guidelines, and partners with corporations and public institutions (CORFO, ProChile, ONU Mujeres) to fund program delivery at no cost to entrepreneur participants.

Product overview

Emprediem is a B-Corp impact entrepreneurship company with 13+ years of experience that operates as a platform of interconnected programs rather than a single software product. The core offerings include four main service lines: Comercialización (connecting entrepreneurs with omnichannel markets), Formación (training programs and mentor certification), Rutas Comerciales y Eventos (commercial routes and events), and Vinculación y Networking (strategic connections and business rounds). These are supported by specialized programs such as Red Mentores de Impacto (impact mentor network with certification), Choapa Sostenible: Turismo Digital (digital tourism), Escuela Mujer Sustentable (women's empowerment with STEM and sales programs), Mind in Araucanía (creative industries summit), Academia Emprende Sostenible (circular tech acceleration), Academia Emprende (regional entrepreneurship), Activa Empresarias (women's business acceleration), and Primeros Pueblos (indigenous artisan commercialization). The company works with CORFO, ProChile, ONU Mujeres, and other institutional partners to deliver these programs across Chile's 16 regions.

• NESsT: US-headquartered organization that provides venture financing and enterprise development to social enterprises in emerging markets, with active programs in Latin America. Highly comparable in mission and operating model (training + commercialization + mentor support for impact entrepreneurs).
• Agora Partnerships: Latin American impact entrepreneurship accelerator offering training, mentoring, and access-to-markets to social entrepreneurs. Directly comparable business model and target beneficiary profile to Emprediem.

Broad incumbents

• Endeavor: Global high-impact entrepreneur support organization with strong presence in Chile and across LatAm, providing mentoring, networking, and capital access to scaling entrepreneurs. Larger and better capitalized, with overlapping entrepreneur-mentor model but oriented toward higher-growth ventures than Emprediem's impact/sustainability focus.
• INCAE Business School: Leading Latin American business school operating executive education, entrepreneurship, and impact programs with a regional footprint. Comparable in delivering structured entrepreneurship training and certification, though at a higher price point and academic scale.
• Wayra: Telefónica's corporate venture and startup accelerator with operations across Latin America, including Chile. Comparable as an entrepreneurship-support platform connecting startups to corporate clients, though focused on tech/SaaS rather than triple-impact SMEs.
• Avina Foundation: Latin American foundation funding and convening impact initiatives across the region, including sustainable entrepreneurship. Comparable mission and partnership role, sits upstream as a funder/convenor rather than direct operator of programs like Emprediem.

Others

• Sistema B: Latin American B Corp network that has partnered with Emprediem for 7+ years on the NCI platform. Adjacent/ecosystem player that certifies and convenes B Corps rather than delivering training, but shares the same impact entrepreneur audience and is a long-term collaborator.
