In a world full of silos, collaboration can seem like a rare thing. But history has proven that when people and organizations work together, they achieve breakthroughs that would be impossible alone. In this video, I share how collaboration led to some of the world’s biggest achievements — like the global vaccine rollout, the James Webb Space Telescope, and the Human Genome Project. But the truth is, collaboration isn’t always easy. There are barriers, competition, and hidden information that make working together harder than it should be. That’s where the Symbiosis Foundation comes in. We’re building a platform that removes the barriers to collaboration and helps mission-driven organizations, nonprofits, and volunteers co-create solutions, share resources, and maximize positive impact — together. If you believe collaboration is the future, this is the place for you. Join us in making a lasting difference.

I set out to meet 10 interesting people in a single day — and what an incredible journey it turned out to be! Join me as I walk through ImpactFest 2025, meet inspiring entrepreneurs, volunteers, and professionals, and reflect on the real challenges and rewards of connecting with others. At The Symbiosis Foundation, we believe that connections strengthen collaboration, and collaboration amplifies social impact. This video is a raw, honest look at networking in a professional setting — from feeling nervous in a room full of experts to discovering unexpected opportunities to collaborate and innovate. 💡What you’ll see in this video:

In nature, nothing thrives alone. Can we?
Every living organism, plant, insect, bird, and fish survives through interdependence. Bees and flowers. Coral and algae. Forests and fungi. Collaboration is nature’s blueprint for thriving.
This same truth inspires The Symbiosis Foundation – a space for win-win collaboration where everyone benefits. By building partnerships, sharing resources, and creating together, we can do more than survive. We can flourish.
