    Last night was a night to remember for Lilu, Inc! We had the privilege of participating in the culmination of Chloe Capital's incredible Founder Fellowship program. For over the last three months, we've been immersed in the program, receiving invaluable insights from seasoned mentors on everything from fundraising and product development to marketing and HR. We also had the inspiring opportunity to connect and learn from the 14 other phenomenal companies in the program. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to pitch Lilu to a room filled with amazing investors, supporters of the startup space, and fellow founders!  It was a night filled with inspiring pitches, insightful connections, and a shared passion for bringing meaningful innovations to life. It was an amazing experience, and we're so grateful for the chance to share our mission with such a powerful audience. We were particularly thrilled to meet and connect with incredible individuals like Jennifer Kwan Mandelbaum, Patrice Bonfiglio, Karen Rios, Gary S among others, who’ve all contributed vastly to changing the landscape of entrepreneurship. This remarkable journey wouldn't have been possible without the unwavering support of Chloe Capital and (NYCEDC) New York City Economic Development Corporation. Their dedication to empowering founders and fostering a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem is truly commendable. We're deeply grateful for their guidance and look forward to contributing to this amazing community and seeing other purpose-driven companies flourish. And the celebration doesn't end here! The Founder Showcase also marked the official launch of Lilu's seed funding round. We're incredibly excited to bring our innovative product lines to market in the coming months and revolutionize the maternal health space. Shoutout to Jie Li from Lair East Labs and Ragini Kothari, our Lead Product Engineer, for their support and for cheering us on at the event! Special thank you to Daria Siegel, Fernando Montejo, Myneco Taylor Ramirez, Katleen Francois, Elisa Miller-Out, Chirag Desai, Kristina Klaas, Nadyli Nuñez, Nina Sharma, Emilia Vanderwerf, Christa Downey, CPCC, PCC Proud of fellow founders Suzanne Sinatra, Eric Tao, Jannine Versi, Kimberly Gray, Micah Bergdale, Som Ray, Vitali Karpeichyk, Bea Arthur, Vienna Sparks, Tobi Bosede, Kayla Wright-Jackson, MHA for all their amazing accomplishments and can't wait to see them make the world a better place.

    I'm delighted to share some fantastic news from the Lilu, Inc team! Ragini Kothari, our brilliant Lead Product Engineer, received the update that her H-1B visa application was selected in the lottery. This means that Lilu has successfully completed its first-ever #visasponsorship for an immigrant employee. This achievement holds immense significance for us at Lilu. As a company built on the foundations of #diversity and #inclusion, we are deeply committed to fostering a team that reflects the rich tapestry of our global community. As diverse founders, Adriana Catalina Vázquez Ortiz and I understand the challenges associated with navigating the immigration system in the US. We've personally experienced these hurdles, and that's why we made a resolute decision early on — sponsorship would never be a barrier to bringing exceptional talent onto our team. Ragini's dedication, expertise, and innovative spirit have been invaluable assets to Lilu. We're absolutely thrilled to support her in her immigration process and empower her to continue making a significant impact in #womenshealth. A heartfelt thank you goes out to Sweta Khandelwal, Ragini's #immigration lawyer, for her guidance and support throughout this process. At Lilu, we believe that diversity is not just a value, it's a driving force for innovation and excellence. We're excited to continue building a team that reflects the world around us, and we look forward to sharing more milestones with you all! We encourage all startups to consider diversity as a core value in their hiring practices. Studies have shown that diverse teams lead to increased creativity, problem-solving abilities, and ultimately, a stronger bottom line. Let's work together to build a more inclusive and successful entrepreneurial ecosystem!
