ISSUE #4 |

Hi Everyone,

To close out the year, this week’s newsletter is going to be short with a big thank you and a single ask.

HOW DID WE DO?

With many of you already on the beach or wrapping up your 2023 to-do lists to shut things down to give yourself and your team a break, I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you. Thank you for reading and sharing the first 3 issues of SiliconCaribe Insider newsletter. Your feedback has been amazing and encouraging.

We’ve had a 53% open rate and a click-through rate of 8%. These numbers are multiples above the global industry standard. 

Thanks also to the CEOs of BiBrainz, HeadOffice, and Pocmi for sponsoring the first 3 issues, and of course, I’m taking on more sponsors for the New Year!

As we grow the readership beyond this first few thousand in 2024 and the sponsorship as well,

I want to take this chance to know a bit more about what’s on your mind.

I WANT MORE OF….

MOST READ

Of the over 7,000 words of content created and shared with you over 3 newsletters, the one that shook the ground the most and was the most read, shared, and discussed offline was

Happy to know that. I wanted to set the tone and let everyone know that a lot of really cool things are happening in our Region and Diaspora, led by brilliant, committed, and passionate people with their ideas, investments, and businesses. 

Our job at SCI is to uncover and tell the stories that matter in the Caribbean’s tech ecosystem about the people and companies that are shaping the Future of Caribbean Business.
