Excited that AGS LABS / ALES GREY™ was invited as one of the FBA Alumni at Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI) It’s been an honor to be part of one of the top incubators in the U.S., building an inclusive green economy. 🌱 At LACI they nurture tomorrow’s climate entrepreneurs and support the deployment of new green technologies in our communities. They create impact in Los Angeles and beyond in other cities by working with startups to accelerate the commercialization of clean technologies; transforming markets through partnerships with policymakers, innovators, and market leaders in zero-emission transportation, clean energy, and sustainable cities; and enhancing communities through workforce development, pilots, and other programs. We were thrilled to join the celebration at LACI's campus, recognizing the founders and all the entrepreneurs who have come through the FBA program. Looking forward to connecting and continuing our shared mission of sustainability, innovation and inclusion. #AGSLABS #ALESGREY™ #CleanTech #FBAAlumni #GreenEconomy #Sustainability #Innovation #LACI #Entrepreneurship #Impact Thank you Abe Baca, Laura María González, Molly Crete and so many more of the FBA and executives in residence team!

A huge thank you to all the Starbucks Partners who are on their feet all day, making sure we’re taken care of when we need that much-needed cup of coffee or tea to power through our day. Did you know the average barista walks between 12,000 and 14,000 steps in a single shift? That’s around 6 to 7 miles every day, all while crafting our favorite drinks and creating a welcoming environment. Whether we’re grabbing a quick drink, taking a moment to sit and eat, or meeting with someone, you are always there for us and we thank you. We honor and appreciate everything you do. Your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed, and we see you! 💚☕ #ALESGREY #Starbucks #ThankYouStarbucksPartners #FrontlineHeroes #EverydayGratitude #WeSeeYou #FrontlinePro #Nonslip #Shoes

Thank you, Google, for hosting Day 2 of the BDRUSA Impact Summit and Meta. I was excited to attend the Billion Dollar Roundtable Inc. (BDR) induction of new companies at the annual Best Practices Summit. BDR members collectively spent over $145 billion with Tier 1 suppliers and contractors in the U.S., all within the BDR’s diversity categories. It was a dream for me to be at the Google campus in Silicon Valley, surrounded by the company and products I use every day—Gmail, Google Cloud, YouTube, Maps, Google Search, and more... Special shoutout to Alex Aceves at Google for his amazing work! #AGSLABSINC #ALESGREY #Frontline #BDR #SupplierDiversity #Google

Thank you Meta, Meta Global Supplier Diversity, BDRUSA, and Google for the invitation to the impactful summit week! Excited to be part of the Billion Dollar Roundtable Inc.

Billion Dollar Roundtable members spent a combined $122+ billion with suppliers and contractors in the U.S., falling within the BDR’s diversity categories. Special shoutout to Jason Trimiew at Meta. I also got to meet a Shark from Queens, NYC my hometown. Great to meet Daymond John and tell him that he inspired me as a kid growing up in Queens seeing him launch a multi-million dollar global brand from where I come from. #AGSLABSINC #ALESGREY #Frontline #BDR #SupplierDiversity #SharkTank #Representation
