As a naturalized American from Venezuela who originally came here on a student visa to attend @Harvard, I agree 💯. There are infinitely better ways to tackle immigration and fix the problems in elite universities than preventing the best and brightest whose values are aligned with America’s from coming here
Intentionality is key to drive an inclusive tech ecosystem- lucky that I’ve known these amazing VCs for a decade and collaborate to shape Miami and beyond! @patriciawexler@Lauragestefani@FuelVC@rileywk
JUST OUT! Miami metro’s startups raised $2.77B in 2024, ranking South Florida as a top 10 VC hub, @eMergeAmericas report finds. Florida-wide, startups reeled in $4.31B, and the report includes a larger focus on the Sunshine State, top deals, exits, sector trends, female fundings & more. https://t.co/zfxpOUNtAj @refreshmiami #MiamiTech #FloridaTech #venturecapital
Haven’t used this platform for a while - felt it was worth to complain to @AmericanAir that has the smallest and oldest plane red eye flying from SFO to MIA at crazy prices!!! #notworthit !
I invest in groundbreaking founders that not only solve for access but also for cultural nuances. Thank you @Inc for featuring Ascendo Venture Capital and what I look for to invest in founders to unlock trillion-dollar opportunities! @annieburba
@BrianBrackeen important to share lived experiences so that others can learn and avoid the pain. We say in Spanish - “nadie experimenta en cabeza ajena” - in other words people convince themselves even when they see the signs that it’s going to be different for them… so only a few will listen
Day 2 @eMergeAmericas inspired by @reshmasaujani call to action on the importance of bridging the gender gap. I believe our efforts in different fields to do this will unlock billions of dollars of economic opportunity that will benefit everyone. @mdcpresident@melmedina305
“What’s your true transformational purpose” @PeterDiamandis challenges us. I know mine- to transform the vc industry through Ascendo-building an inclusive ecosystem of wealth generation for founders from ALL backgrounds, ALL communities & investors. What’s yours? @eMergeAmericas
