Hosted by Crecimiento

Crecimiento is a movement uniting builders, founders, policymakers and global allies to accelerate Argentina’s transformation through innovation in crypto, AI and frontier technologies.

Our mission stands on three pillars: adoption, growth and regulatory stability. We believe Argentina can become a global hub for blockchain and startups by connecting talent, funding and clear long-term rules.

The Aleph Festival is part of this broader mission — to make Argentina a global crypto hub.

Our previous editions
Aleph Pop Up City

At Crecimiento we conceived the Pop-Up City as a living lab of innovation — a space where builders, startups, regulators and the community could come together to shape Argentina’s onchain future.

We named it Aleph, inspired by Borges’ tale, as a metaphor for a single point of convergence where all ideas, talents and visions meet. From that vision came three editions that defined the path: Aleph Ciudad de Crecimiento, Aleph de Verano, and Aleph March ’25 — each proving Argentina’s unique energy to lead.
