Yesterday, on September 14th, the Fail Forward event took place, and we are immensely grateful to everyone who attended. The overwhelming support from the Tampa Bay Community was truly heartwarming, and we are filled with excitement for what the future holds. With a fantastic turnout of over 50 attendees, it was a testament to the strong bond we share in embracing failure as a steppingstone to success.
Organized by the Tampa Bay Latin Chamber in partnership with the Entrepreneur Collaborative Center, Fail Forward is a transformative bi-monthly program dedicated to empowering our community by turning setbacks into growth opportunities. It is a platform that celebrates failure, recognizing it as an essential part of the journey towards achieving remarkable success.
During yesterday’s event, we were privileged to have three exceptional panelists share their stories of resilience and determination. María Ivana Ramírez, a trailblazing individual who continuously pushes the boundaries of technology while overcoming language barriers, inspired us with her innovative journey. Cesar R. Hernandez, a global innovator, captivated us with his ability to transform obstacles into opportunities on a worldwide scale. Manuel Suarez, an e-commerce expert and digital marketing strategist, imparted valuable insights gained from his own path to mastering online success. Their stories were truly inspirational, leaving us all with a renewed sense of possibility.
We would like to express our deepest gratitude to SaryKarmen for skillfully moderating the conversation, ensuring that everyone remained engaged throughout the event. We are also indebted to Parrilla Photography, who expertly captured the memorable moments from yesterday’s gathering, preserving them for future recollection. Furthermore, we extend our sincere appreciation to BMO Harris Bank for their invaluable partnership and sponsorship of the event, including the delicious coffee provided by Creative Mixology Zeke Taqué.
Looking ahead, we encourage everyone to save the date for the next Fail Forward event, scheduled for November 9th. Join us as we continue to celebrate the power of failure, the triumphs of our community, and the growth mindset that empowers each and every one of our journeys.
