Our team has embarked on an exhilarating six-week fellowship, made possible by the US Department of State YLAI (Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative) and the remarkable MetaBronx accelerator. This journey has been an absolute game-changer for us, and I am excited to share the highlights with you.

βOur experience at MetaBronx has been nothing short of extraordinary. This accelerator is dedicated to empowering underrepresented founders, and it has been an honor to be a part of this vibrant community.
The connections we've made with visionary founders and funders from the Latin American community have been invaluable. Their insights have broadened our horizons and allowed us to explore new possibilities for our venture. Special thanks to FounderFamilia for facilitating these meaningful engagements.

βThe past week has been filled with collaborative sessions, refining our business strategy and pitch. Working closely with Entrepreneurs Roundtable Accelerator, fellow NY fellows, and the esteemed leadership at MetaBronx, we have laid a strong foundation to engage potential investors.
βOur aspirations know no borders. We've been actively exploring international opportunities and networking with industry experts. The prospect of making a global impact with Recess Labs is both exhilarating and promising.
βAs with any journey, we encountered challenges along the way. Despite a minor setback in releasing the new app build, our talented team, led by our exceptional CTO, Lisanne Fellinger, demonstrated remarkable resilience and determination.
βI extend my heartfelt gratitude to the U.S. Department of State and MetaBronx for providing us with this incredible opportunity. Their unwavering support has been instrumental in propelling us forward.
