Look, my fingers are getting tired…very tired…so many great minds…so many awesome thinkers…like wow…

So many solid participants, so many speakers from every field imaginable. This isn’t a tech summit…it’s more like a two-day masterclass.

Lawd is all I can say! What a tech show!

And how wonderful that it’s Haiti Tech Summit! This event has so much potential…it gives me vertigo just thinking of what it can grow into.

This is the event’s first year, so can you imagine what organizer Souffrant-Ntim will endure to top herself for the sophomore event!

Haiti Tech Summit! In Port-au-Prince!
