Lamar: Thanks for inviting me, Spiffy! Teens of Color Abroad, also known as TOCA, was created to address the racial disparities in language learning and study-abroad opportunities. We believe that when provided with international language learning opportunities, high school students of color, especially those from under-resourced communities, will become global ambassadors in college and beyond.
Amir: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! We see a lot of men and boys in sports and technology; we want to help bring more girls and women into sports and technology too, so that we can achieve more as a group.
Michael: Pleased to be here, Spiffy! What if I told you that the days of vaccines being associated with making appointments, traveling to clinics, and receiving uncomfortable shots will soon come to an end? Vaxess Technologies, along with teams at Tufts University and MIT, have developed the MIMIX platform: a vaccine patch technology. With the MIMIX platform, Vaxess is working towards a future where vaccines for the majority of illnesses—from flu to COVID— can be administered via a vaccine patch that’s as easy and painless to apply as a Band-Aid.
