YTILI testimony

My YTILI Fellowship in Denver, within the Colorado Space Business Roundtable, was an incredibly enriching and dynamic experience that focused on fostering collaboration between businesses, universities, and government entities in the aerospace and space industries. During my YTILI fellowship, I engaged in high-level discussions with leaders from aerospace sector, government and academia. Visits to the Colorado Air and Space Port, Women’s Bean Project, and a gala at Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space Museum highlighted Colorado's dynamic blend of industry, history, and social entrepreneurship. Informal networking with space professionals and panel discussions deepened my understanding of the space ecosystem and its challenges. This transformative experience was made possible through the support of the Colorado Space Business Roundtable.

I strongly believe that the most important aspect of all international exchanges are people. I had the privilege of meeting many like-minded professionals and expanding my network. Throughout the fellowship, Debra Wilcox, Chair of the Colorado Space Business Roundtable (CSBR) and my U.S. Fellow, was incredibly helpful and supportive. I highly recommend YTILI to anyone looking to grow professionally, create an impact on an international scale and make long-lasting friendships.
