(Por Otero-Maurizio) No es un festival. Es un movimiento geoeconómico con epicentro en Buenos Aires. El World Happiness Fest —presente en 80+ países— elige Argentina para su edición 2025, confirmando un giro histórico: la felicidad dejó de ser un tema blando para convertirse en el núcleo de la competitividad nacional y corporativa.

Milei en Miami: el discurso de la "Revolución Capitalista" y su impacto real en inversores internacionales (análisis para inversores y empresarios)

(Por Taylor y Maqueda desde Brickell, colaboración especial de Marcelo Maurizio) Frente a 10.000 personas en el American Business Forum de Miami,  ovacionado en reiteradas oportunidades, Javier Milei ejecutó perfectamente el guión que inversores conservadores esperaban oír: "Dos de cada tres argentinos apoyan este camino" y "no existe crecimiento económico sin defensa de la propiedad privada".  

La comunidad argentina y latinoamericana que ha huido del estatismo socialista, la audiencia perfecta para Javier Milei en Miami

(Por Marcelo Maurizio, con la colaboración de Rovmistrosky y Maqueda) Para entender por qué Milei eligió Miami para este discurso, hay que comprender la composición única de la diáspora argentina aquí. Javier fue recibido con aplausos, gritos, aplausos, “te amo” y por supuesto “viva la libertad …” por venezolanos, colombianos, brasileños, españoles y miles de argentinos que huyeron del estatismo socialista de los gobiernos de sus países.
