Our Future Founders Business & Career Summit and charitable Esports Tournament featured non-stop action with a phenomenal lineup of entrepreneurs, executives, business leaders across the United States and drew players as far as Scotland and the United Kingdom.
Topics ranged from Animation and Aviation, to Esports and Gaming, Fundraising and Franchising, Virtual Reality, Mixed Reality and more. We are forever grateful to everyone who shared their time and expertise. Even speakers who couldn’t join us live took the time to submit recorded presentations to show their support.
Talk about sports… Reps from NBA, MLB, MiLB and the NFL all showed up for us!

So much went on behind the scenes this year…
Designed, produced and launched our own line of merch!
2-day event culminating with a 12-hour livestream hosted and broadcasted by our awesome partners at TCNJ Lions Gaming on Twitch
2nd live location in our southeast region Teen Tech Center at the Palmetto Kids Music & Arts Academy (launched last year in South Carolina with a grant from Target)
Live play action for youth on PS4 and Xbox inside Mishoe’s Mobile Gaming Truck!
Longtime supporter NFL Legend Reggie “Truck” Brown and Ms. Leontyne Anglin reunited for the first time since the pandemic to kickoff the virtual event.
The co-host torch was passed to two of our high school interns Jediyah Anderson and Lizzie Hernandez who are amazingly talented content creators, commentators and animators on the rise. They worked together behind-the-scenes for several months, researched guests, and attended meetings with partners in preparation for the day. It was a huge undertaking chock-full of moving parts.
It provided more real ‘hands-on’ opportunities for them to gain tangible experience while continuing to enhance their communications skills, organizing and navigating live events which will help propel them forward…well-equipped to join any team.

Between both events, we ended up with nearly 6 hours of footage!

Sincere thanks to everyone who made the time to participate to collectively give back and share your gifts with youth and families during another holiday season.
