17.01.2022 This time last week we hosted our very first Remarkable Alumni Circle, where we caught up with some of our amazing Remarkable alumni to see what they're up to now. As part of the evening, we were lucky to have the incredible Danny Weissberg, Founder of Voiceitt join us to share his startup journey. Danny and his team are developing the Voiceitt app, which learns your unique way of speaking and then translates your speech in real-time through speech and text on your iPhone or ...iPad. This was a wonderful opportunity to bring our Remarkable family together, to inspire, encourage, and support each other. These events are so special for us and are our way of reminding our alumni that the conclusion of our accelerator program simply marks the beginning of their journeys and we will always be there to support them. The very talented Issy Quigley captured the fun of the evening with a visual scribe, which you can see below. We can't wait for our next alumni Circle!
