🔥 The Deep Dive: Community Spotlights only
No Deep Dive this time — just two founders in the spotlight, sharing what they’re building and where they’re headed.
👀 Showcase
Alessandro Marianantoni, Director @ M Accelerator
Alessandro introduced M Accelerator, a program rethinking how startup support should work. With a focus on action over theory, M Accelerator creates a hands-on environment — both online and in Los Angeles — where founders can actually do the work, not just talk about it.
Kingson Tse, Co-Founder @ Exchvnge
Kingson shared the vision behind Exchvnge, a platform connecting sellers with expert hosts to power live shopping experiences. As social commerce continues to rise, Exchvnge is giving brands a new way to scale with personality, community, and real-time connection.
