About this Event

Unlock New Partnerships, Global Talent, and Fresh Perspectives

This interactive gathering brings together Austin‑based leaders interested in strengthening their community impact, exploring global perspectives, and building meaningful professional relationships.

About the Initiative

The Young Leaders of the Americas Initiative (YLAI) is a U.S. State Department–funded program implemented by IREX. Each year, 250 entrepreneurs from Latin America and the Caribbean collaborate with U.S. organizations for four weeks, completing tangible projects that strengthen both the Fellow’s venture and the host organization’s work. After the program, both hosts and Fellows join a global alumni network that continues to collaborate long after the exchange ends.

About the Event Host

Mountaintop International serves as the U.S. Network Builder for YLAI, working to connect Fellows with U.S. organizations, expand placement opportunities, and support long‑term collaboration across the network.

The Event

Join us at Casa De Luz Village for an interactive, highly practical relationship building session designed specifically for YLAI Fellowship Placement Organizations (FPOs) and other local businesses and nonprofits looking to learn and expand their networks.

Participants will come prepared to share:

  • 2-3 asks (what would meaningfully move your work forward in the next 30 days)
  • 2-3 offers (specific ways you can support others in the room)

Through two rounds of small-group breakout discussions, participants will exchange ideas, make introductions, and identify actionable next steps.

Who Should Attend:

  • Current and prospective YLAI Fellowship Placement Organizations (FPOs)
  • Members of the business and nonprofit community looking to meet new people and identify collaborations
  • Anyone interested in supporting or engaging with the YLAI Fellowship

Agenda:

  • Welcome and framing
  • Individual preparation (asks and offers)
  • Breakout Round 1
  • Breakout Round 2
  • Large group reflections
  • Closing and next steps

We look forward to a fun and engaging brainstorm with you!
