I sit down with the executive director of Parallel 18, Sebastian Vidal.  Parallel18 welcomes innovators from around the globe to help them scale from Puerto Rico to global communities beyond the Island. Supporting successful startups is our motivation. This is why we build initiatives within the program that lead to growth and help foster and promote entrepreneurship in Puerto Rico. Startups from more than 48 countries have applied to Parallel18. And those who have gone through our acceleration program have seen results beyond their expectations.
