“It’s important to keep connecting the innovators and decision-makers that make Miami the place to be,” said Melissa Medina, Co-Founder & President of eMerge Americas. “I’ve watched Miami evolve over the years, and its trajectory continues to inspire. La Casa is about celebrating the growth and diversification of the Miami tech scene and collaborating on new ways to keep us moving forward.”
“We have a shared mission and that is to create a robust support system for startup founders, investors and key players to take Miami’s tech and innovation community to the next level,” said David Barkoe, CEO and Founder of Carve Communications. “Last year’s event was tremendously successful, and we could not be more excited to once again partner with Florida Funders and eMerge Americas to bring the community together and continue to celebrate the #MiamiTech movement.”
