Alejandro Villero, SAGE Team Member: This year's SAGE World Cup in South Africa was truly unforgettable. With top teams from over 20 countries competing, I witnessed some of the most unique entrepreneurial projects (not to mention polished presentations) I've seen in my life. In addition, the international networking opportunities were phenomenal--I'm actually negotiating a business deal with the leader of SAGE Ghana right now!


The scene at Cape Town was also nothing short of amazing. From Table Mountain tops to breathtaking wildlife to shimmering beaches, Cape Town had a lot to offer, and is certainly a place I'd like to visit again someday.

As I leave for college, I feel that this SAGE trip was the perfect ending to my high school experience (2nd place ain't too shabby!). The introduction I've had to entrepreneurship will undoubtedly serve me for years to come. I thank Ms. Jones, Ms. Kemp, and the entire ROP Staff for all their support during my time at Samohi.
