Afitab Iyigun
Afitab looks back on LaunchX as one of her best experiences, the kind that builds friendships as much as it builds founders. She's already thinking about how to help other young entrepreneurs do the same.
Bailey Cherry
Bailey turned her love of reading into ReBooked, now Hong Kong's largest secondhand bookstore for kids' books, built on sustainability and educational equity. LaunchX's mentorship model, she says, provides a really unique experience.
