LATIN 2024

March 18 – 22, 2024
Puerto Varas/Chile

 

The LATIN 2024 conference will take place at the Hotel Cabaña del Lago, in the beautiful city of Puerto Varas in southern Chile, between March 18-22, 2024.

 

LATIN (Latin American Theoretical Informatics) was born in 1992, when a group of Latin American researchers, under the leadership of Imre Simon (São Paulo, Brazil), launched the first of a series of symposia in theoretical computer science, to be held triennially in Latin America. Since 1998 it has been held biennially: Valparaiso, Chile (1995); Campinas, Brazil (1998); Punta del Este, Uruguay (2000); Cancún, Mexico (2002); Buenos Aires, Argentina (2004); Valdivia, Chile (2006); Búzios, Brazil (2008); Oaxaca, Mexico (2010); Arequipa, Peru (2012); Montevideo, Uruguay (2014); Ensenada, Mexico (2016); Buenos Aires, Argentina (2018); São Paulo, Brazil (2020); Guanajuato, Mexico (2022).

Venue

LATIN 2024 will take place in the beautiful city of Puerto Varas, located in the South of Chile, in the Los Rios Region. It is known for the scenic views of Osorno Volcano and Lake Llanquihue, its location near popular tourist destinations like the Vicente Perez Rosales National Park, and its German colonial architecture. Puerto Varas is a popular destination for outdoor activities such as hiking, fishing, and skiing.

The conference will be hosted in the Hotel Cabaña del Lago, located directly at the Lake Llanquihue in Puerto Varas. It is in walking distance (approximately 15min) to the center of Puerto Varas.
