"Don’t think out of the box…. Think of a NEW BOX. Video games and social impact with Federico Restrepo"
While originally from Medellin, Colombia, Federico has worked all over the world developing partnerships and is an organizational management expert focused on youth and leadership development. As a child, he wasn’t learning Chinese and practicing for standardized tests.
