APEC Chile 2019 would have been an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) series of meetings in Chile.[2][3] The meetings were supposed to take place in Santiago and focus on the digital economy, regional connectivity, and women's role in economic growth.[1][4]

Chile previously hosted an APEC meeting in 2004. The 2019 summit was cancelled on 30 October due to ongoing protests.[5]
