I'm building Caribbean Tech Week 2027 across multiple cities, connecting the Caribbean + Diaspora.
Nearly 20 events in new cities like London, and one thing is clear again: Caribbean innovators are building AMAZING things with fresh energy from AI.

Jamaica is setting the stage for its next phase of tourism growth.
Under the Tourism 3.0 growth agenda, approximately 20,000 new hotel rooms are targeted over the next 10 to 15 years, with 5,000 already under construction.
The expansion will increase the island’s room capacity while supporting new investment, employment and opportunities across the tourism value chain.

"Caribbean Tech Week is that one signature week a year where Caribbean innovators, startups, companies, organisations and governments raise their hands to say this who I am, where I am, what I am building, investing in and I am ready to collaborate and do business with you and the world on a whole different level. It’s about our global Caribbean Innovation economy and how we’re positioning ourselves on our terms."

Rookie founder mistake: building an advisory board of non-investors.
Every advisor needs to invest: $10k, $5k, $1k. Something!!
Don't be a rookie.
