Through our Startup Grind event series Hunting for Silver Linings, we check in with ecosystem builders, investors, and business leaders from around the world. We dig for deeper context around challenges and opportunities found in markets around the world, as well as mine for insight that can better inform biases about regions, their talent, and potential for investment. Then, we connect the dots. OUR HOSTS Corey Hart OUR SPECIAL GUEST Thursday, January 14, we are pleased to host Fernando Zeledon of Faster Capital & the International Business Accelerator.
