María Corina Machado has become one of Latin America’s most resolute voices for freedom and democratic change. An industrial engineer turned political trailblazer, she founded key civil‑society initiatives in Venezuela and later rose to lead the opposition movement, challenging entrenched power with courage and conviction. At America Business Forum Miami, her presence would bring the voice of fearless leadership, regional transformation, and the belief that business, innovation and civic courage go hand‑in‑hand to shape the future.
