Announcing #RestartWeek West centered in Mayaguez Puerto Rico, May 11-18, 2018
The community has spoken: the next Restart Week is moving west to Puerto Rico’s college center in Mayaguez, nearby popular surfing town of Rincon and Aguadilla.
Mayaguez is the largest city on the Western side of the island with 20,000 college students – 20% of the 100K population. It is the center for technology on the island, with more computer science graduates than anywhere in Puerto Rico.
Who Are the Restarters?
Restart Week is a movement for the community, by the community. We consider ourselves global citizens, with a common goal of helping boost the local economy of each region we focus on. The week of events is powered by a collective of motivated people from Puerto Rico and across the world on a mission to create lasting positive impact.
The first Restart Week in San Juan was a success with an estimated 2000 conference attendees and over 3000 participants across the city, many of whom traveled into Puerto Rico to attend.
#RestartWeek acts as a positive change agent and catalyst for Puerto Rico’s economy. The collective presence is about economic development and social responsibility. The intent is to leave the island better equipped than when the movement arrived and provide the tools and resources that cannot be readily found locally.
