Esta semana tuvimos la culminación de la primera cohorte del Kirchner Fellowship en Costa Rica. Derivado de las actividades de la Kirchner Impact Foundation en Centroamérica y que, particularmente en Costa Rica hace tres años pasamos de tener varias (muchísimas!) sesiones de "whiteboarding" a la primera generación de estudiantes costarricenses que vivieron en carne propia lo que es ser #inversionista de #impacto. Este reporte, es el resultado del increíble trabajo que hicieron nuestros fellows, ahora Alumni del programa: Sianny Chavarria, Celestina Brenes Porras e Itnan Vargas Venegas, a lo largo del 2023 y que gracias a la información que logró recolectarse, pudimos respaldar con datos duros las áreas de oportunidad en preparación de las empresa para recibir inversión en Costa Rica, particularmente en el sector de la bioeconomía. Todo esto no hubiera sido posible sin el apoyo de nuestros partners locales como la Fundación CRUSA, con una mención especial a Gabriela López Salazar por estar "a pie de cañón" a lo largo de todo el proceso, no solo del Fellowship, pero también todas las demás actividades de KIF. También agradecer a todo el equipo: Priscilla Morera, Eduardo Garay, Charles Higgenbotham, Steve Dauphin, Rod Parker, Adrian Garcia Casarrubias, Blair G. Kirchner y Hattie Brown. Link al reporte en el primer comentario! -------------- This week marked the culmination of the first cohort of the Kirchner Fellowship in Costa Rica. Stemming from the efforts of the Kirchner Impact Foundation in Central America, and specifically in Costa Rica over the past three years. From numerous whiteboarding sessions to seeing the first generation of Costa Rican students experience being an impact investor firsthand. This report showcases the remarkable work of our fellows, now Alumni of the program: Sianny Chavarria, Celestina Brenes Porras, and Itnan Vargas Venegas, throughout 2023. The info they collected provides tangible data for improvement in companies' preparedness to receive investment, particularly in the bioeconomy sector. This achievement would not have been possible without the support of our local partners, especially the CRUSA Foundation, with a special mention to Gabriela Lopez Salazar for her unwavering support throughout the entire process, not only during the Fellowship but also in all other KIF activities. I would also like to extend our gratitude to the entire team: Priscilla Morera, Eduardo Garay, Charles Higgenbotham, Steve Dauphin, Rod Parker, Adrián García Casarrubias, Blair G. Kirchner, and Hattie Brown.
