Fernando Fischmann became the image of what Chile aspires to be. A country doesn’t just export commodities, but also added value. This is the reason that, despite the fact he prefers to keep a low profile, that he is a fixture in innovation and entrepreneurship seminars and an active voice in these areas. His last adventure is a reality show that will award the most innovative project with a million dollar prize.

When you talk about entrepreneurship and innovation in Chile, Fernando Fischmann name immediately comes up.

“His company, Crystal Lagoons, has been able to conquer international markets thanks to its technological development and a well oiled business model. It’s the Chilean Apple on global reach and innovation, but Fischmann isn’t Steve Jobs, nor does he wish to be. While the charismatic CEO of the Apple brand is used to steal the close ups and is used to be in the center of news, Fischmann prefers to cultivate a very low profile. He doesn’t give interviews and doesn’t like the press. For him, all the attention should focus on his company and not in his person”.

But that is just one side of the coin in his personality. On the other side, he’s an active advocate of entrepreneurship and innovation in Chile. He’s constantly acting as a speaker for young audiences or is in conversations with the authorities giving them his vision on the road that Chile should take to promote entrepreneurship. In fact, he’s an active member of the National Council on Innovation.
