Mana Common founder and chairman,  Moishe Mana, has added another major property to his growing Downtown Miami holdings, purchasing the 31-story One Downtown office tower for $110 million. The property, located at 1 Southeast Third Avenue, was sold by Los Angeles-based PCCP and Boca Raton-based CP Group. 

The deal works out to roughly $244 per square foot for the 450,000-square-foot building, further cementing Mana’s role as one of the most influential real estate owners in the city’s urban core.  

Originally known as the SunTrust International Center, the tower has undergone significant renovations in recent years and includes a variety of amenities such as a rooftop terrace, ground-floor retail, and a large parking garage. The building also houses several tenants, including technology companies and professional service firms that continue to expand their presence in Downtown Miami. 

The acquisition fits into Mana’s long-term vision for transforming Downtown Miami’s Flagler Street corridor into a hub for innovation, business, and international connectivity. Mana has spent more than a decade assembling properties in the area, building a portfolio that now includes around 80 buildings downtown, along with significant land holdings in Wynwood, including the large event and creative complex Mana Wynwood. 

Speaking about the purchase and his broader strategy for the district, Mana said, “We believe in the Flagler District, and we will continue to increase our investment in South Florida.”

The purchase comes as Miami continues work on the long-planned Flagler Street streetscape project, a public improvement initiative intended to make the historic corridor more pedestrian-friendly and attractive to businesses. Mana has been a major advocate and supporter of the project, which aligns with his vision of creating a connected downtown ecosystem for entrepreneurs and companies from across the Americas.

This week, we celebrate Mana Common Founder and Chairman Moishe Mana and the momentum his vision has driven across Miami over the past year.

Mana Hubs has continued its rapid growth, with tech-focused companies thriving in a workspace designed to support innovation and collaboration in the Flagler District. Mana Fashion Services expanded its ecosystem with the launch of the Fabric Showroom inside the historic Biscayne Building, offering designers and emerging brands access to essential materials and resources.

Across the Mana portfolio, cultural investment remains strong. Mana Wynwood hosted major art, fashion, music, and business events that drew global audiences, reinforcing the campus as one of Miami’s most important creative and economic destinations.

In Downtown Miami, Mana Public Arts introduced new large-scale murals across our properties, including the world’s largest outdoor Mona Lisa mural and “Urban Metamorphosis” at our headquarters. The artwork reflects the continued renaissance of the Flagler District, where restoration, cultural programming, and community-focused development remain a priority.

As these initiatives move forward, Mana’s mission stays centered on building opportunity, supporting creatives and entrepreneurs, and shaping vibrant neighborhoods that bring people together.

FinTech NerdCon arrived in Miami for the first time, taking over the White Room at the Mana Wynwood Convention Center for a two-day gathering of operators, builders, and innovators across the fintech ecosystem. The debut edition at Mana Wynwood brought together 1,000+ curated fintech operators, 100+ speakers, 20+ roundtables, and 25+ live podcasts, all housed within the White Room.

Across November 19 and 20, attendees explored a dynamic program featuring panels, fireside chats, technical sessions, roundtables, live podcasts, and hands-on workshops. The event also featured dedicated networking booths, food and beverage stations, and daily happy hours that kept conversations flowing well beyond the scheduled programming.

As a partner of the conference, Mana Tech played a central role throughout the two-day program. CEO Charly Esnal participated in a day one roundtable on Miami’s Moment: The Making of a Global Tech Hub, then returned on day two for Miami’s Fintech Edge on the Side Quest Stage, where he spoke alongside Ray Chalub, COO of Inter, and German Pugliese-Bassi. The session, moderated by Albert Periu, CEO USA at Zilch and Operating Partner at Glade Brook Capital, explored Miami’s rising position as a strategic bridge between the United States and Latin America and a fast-growing hub for global fintech expansion.

Esnal reflected on the event, noting that bringing FinTech NerdCon to Mana Wynwood signals Miami’s continued rise as a tech powerhouse:

FinTech NerdCon’s first year at Mana Wynwood marks an important milestone for Miami’s growing tech landscape and sets the foundation for deeper collaboration across fintech, innovation, and the builders shaping what comes next.For more updates on upcoming events at Mana Wynwood, visit manawynwood.com/events.

The South Florida Business Journal spotlighted Moishe Mana for his long-term strategy to uplift downtown Miami through renovation, cultural investment, and tech innovation. With more than 80 properties acquired along the Flagler Street corridor, Mana remains focused on restoring historic buildings and enhancing the district’s streetscape rather than pursuing new towers.

This mission is reflected across Mana Tech, where 142 members now work within Mana Common’s incubator, Mana Hubs, hosting hundreds of events, supporting founders, and preparing for expansion into the forthcoming Nikola Tesla Innovation Hub. Startups in the ecosystem have collectively raised over 90 million dollars, strengthening Miami’s position as a global connector between North and Latin America.

Throughout downtown, additional projects are underway, including new culinary concepts, fashion and legal hubs, and public art inspired by Renaissance heritage. Together, these efforts reinforce Mana’s commitment to building a connected, culturally rich, and entrepreneur-powered district.

This past month, Mana Tech and ProComer formed a strategic alliance to create an accelerator program tailored for Costa Rican to tech startups looking to expand into the U.S. market. The startups selected were: AKUREY, Asistente PIA, Creo Futbol, Factor K Software, Mensis, Neurobrand, Paralleldevs, Qanta Media, Softcial, Symbiotic Tecnologia SA. 

The entrepreneurs spent four weeks in online workshops and pitch practices before embarking on a journey to Miami to showcase Costa Rican’s innovative talent. During their week in Miami, they connected with Florida’s tech ecosystem and gained firsthand insights into the U.S. market. They also had access to expert mentors who guided them through key aspects of expanding to the U.S., from marketing and branding to immigration. 

On their final day, all ten founders participated in a speed-dating activity with judges, who then selected six startups to pitch at Demo Day: Factor K, Creo, Neuroband, Akurey, Symbiotic, and Quanta. The big win went to Eugenia Rodriguez  from Neurobrand! A special thanks to the judges Roy de Souza, Gonzalo Avila, Cliff Roscow, and Bo Megginson, for their time and expertise.

Congratulations to all the companies for their hard work and dedication throughout these intense weeks. A heartfelt thank you to our partner ProComer, we look forward to collaborating again in the future.

The post The Future of Work in Downtown Miami appeared first on Mana Tech.

At Mana Tech, we’ve always believed in the power of real conversations and connections. That’s what led us to co-create Innovation Tech Week, an event designed to bring together founders, investors, and ecosystem builders.

During the last weeks of March, we brought that vision to life in Miami for the very first time, alongside our partners eMerge Americas, Digbang, and SquadS Ventures.

This was the first edition of Innovation Tech Week outside of Argentina, and the response was beyond what we hoped for:

• 25 events hosted across ten days
• 3,500+ attendees
• Participants from over 24 countries
• 10 sponsors who helped make it all possible

What We Built Together

The week kicked off with an opening cocktail that brought guests from 13 countries: startup founders, VCs, accelerators, and community leaders, all getting to know each other over a drink. And we closed things out with a full house at Oaxaca Mi Alma, where guests from 19 countries joined us for one last night of connections.

In between, we packed the week with panels, roundtables, pitch events, and casual meetups. We saw founders talk honestly about their toughest challenges. We saw VCs sharing insights not only from the stage but also at the coffee table. We watched connections happen between people who might not have crossed paths otherwise. 

That’s what we mean when we say, “Connections that make a difference.”

Americas Tech Community Leaders Breakfast co-hosted by Mana Tech

We’re not here to check boxes or throw events for the sake of it. We’re here to create those connections that make a difference, and this week was proof that they are real and growing.

The first Miami edition of Innovation Tech Week was also made possible with the support of 10 sponsors: Draper Cygnus, Pacifico Group at Morgan Stanley,Tinggo, SOUTHWORKS,Delta Air Lines, Aeropuerto Vip Club,BGH Tech Partner,IAE,N5 Now, and Supra Legit. And with Miami increasingly becoming a gateway for international startups looking to scale in the U.S., the event also helped deepen the ties between the different tech ecosystems.

Mana Tech thanks everyone who took part in this first edition in Miami: attendees, partners, speakers, mentors, and friends who helped create this experience.

What’s next? 

We’re heading back to where it all started: Innovation Tech Week, Buenos Aires, on June 2–6. If Miami was the beginning of something new, Buenos Aires is our home base, and we want to welcome you there.

Subscribe to our newsletter for community updates, news, and first access to Innovation Tech Week announcements and lineup.

Until then, we’ll keep doing what we do best: showing up, bringing people together, and building the ecosystem we all want to be part of.
