About SiliconCaribe

Silicon Caribe – The Caribbean’s Digital Business & Culture Magazine + Community. We create Content. Events. Communities. #DigitalCaribbean

SiliconCaribe started as a blog chronicling the rise of Caribbean startups, tech entrepreneurs, and digital businesses. Over time, it evolved into the region’s leading tech and business news platform, a Dow Jones-syndicated site read in over 90 countries worldwide. More than just a source of news, SiliconCaribe has been at the forefront of shaping the Caribbean’s digital economy—fueling conversations, spotlighting opportunities, and connecting entrepreneurs, investors, and industry leaders.

SiliconCaribe is also the Caribbean’s leading producer of tech events.

From this blog came Kingston BETA, the Caribbean’s first and longest-running tech event series and entrepreneurial community. Launched in 2007, Kingston BETA now iconic in its impact and cultural influence, ignited Jamaica’s tech startup scene and expanded across the region, inspiring hundreds of founders, attracting investment, and building a powerful network of innovators.
