We are a creative group of entrepreneurial professionals using business, events and social media to help make the world a little better for children in dire poverty. Ten percent of every dollar we take in funds sustainable ideas at local nonprofits.
Edgar Mejia
Chief Creative Officer
Growing up, Edgar dreamed of becoming an animator for Disney. A backpack trip to Machu Picchu, a few too many marathons and an MBA led him to develop a company in which business is used to fund sustainable projects at nonprofits that serve children in dire poverty. That company is called Conexion.
Edgar began his professional career at the LA Area Chamber of Commerce where he spent over 12 years and held numerous positions. After that tenure he made his mark in the Hispanic business world by heading the Latin Business Association (LBA) to national notoriety, and international presence.
