Dream It × Prime: the two biggest names in U.S. sports in Chile join forces

Some alliances are planned over months in a boardroom. Others are born when two people who've been doing the same thing for years look at each other and say: it's time to do this together. This is one of the latter.

Two paths, one destination

Philippe Patri has spent 9 years connecting South American athletes with U.S. universities. Hundreds of athletes placed across 15 nationalities, from NJCAA to NCAA Division I. Dream It became the go-to agency in Chile for athletic scholarships.

Micael Scaramelli has spent a decade leading international sports experiences with Prime. Tours to the Disney ESPN Wide World of Sports Cup in Orlando, university visits, competitions in Spain and Argentina. Prime became the bridge between South America and U.S. sports.

Both spent years taking Chile to the United States. Now they're flipping the equation: bringing the United States to Chile.

The Prime Showcase: more than a showcase

The result of this alliance is the Prime Showcase — an event that breaks the mold of anything that exists in Chile. It's not just a soccer showcase. It's a complete sports expo where on-field evaluation, education, and direct connection to the U.S. sports system coexist.

Three days in Santiago where 130+ athletes from professional clubs, academies, and schools across Chile are evaluated by U.S. university coaches on the field, while their families explore an educational expo with scholarship agencies, English programs, sports psychology, prep schools, professional video highlights, international tours, and summer camps.

“A showcase alone falls short. We wanted to create something bigger: a space where athletes and their families can experience what U.S. sports means before making the leap. Three days where every player is not just evaluated, but educated, prepared, and connected. That's the Prime Showcase.”

— Micael Scaramelli, Director, Prime International Experience

Experience. Exposure. Export.

The Prime Showcase is built on three pillars. Experience: 3 days living U.S. sports culture in Santiago, with talks, networking, and activities beyond the field. Exposure: 130+ athletes evaluated with VEO 4K technology, 50+ universities connected live. Export: the ultimate goal is connecting Chilean talent with real opportunities in the United States.

Each day mixes field and expo. Athletes compete while families learn. Coaches recruit while experiencing Chile. All at the same time, all in one place.

Why Prime as a neutral brand

Prime is not a scholarship agency. Prime is a platform. That matters. The event brings together all scholarship agencies in the country under one roof, alongside university coaches, prep schools, exchange programs, and more. It doesn't belong to one agency. It belongs to everyone.

That allows any academy, any club, any school in Chile to participate without conflict. The Prime brand is the neutral space where talent meets opportunity, regardless of which agency you work with or if you don't work with any.

December 8, 9 & 10, 2026
