World Build 2 🛬 in Argentina
On Sunday, 25 builders representing nine countries arrived in Buenos Aires for the World Build 2 residential sprint. Across the next seven days, founders move from orientation to investment‑ready pitches through a mix of technical deep dives, growth strategy workshops, and real‑world user research.
Day 1 & 2 programming included a World App roadmap preview with Andy Wang (Senior Engineering Manager, World App at Tools for Humanity), blitzscaling growth with Martín Mazza (Regional General Manager LATAM, Tools for Humanity), and an advanced UX design workshop with FWB member Kitty Vo.

FEST 5 Confirmed August 2026
We’re thrilled to share that FEST is officially back in Idyllwild for its 5th year. The response from the extended FWB community has been extraordinary: a reminder of how much this gathering means and what we’ve built together. Thanks to that energy, we’ve found new partners who believe in keeping the magic alive.
Here’s what matters most: we’ll be gathering in the woods again.
A few words from our new partners:
To us, FEST is a nexus of chance collisions that lead to new ideas, new conversations, new friendships, and new futures. We’ve been fortunate enough to experience that over the years by both attending and producing programming and are ready to run with the baton and grow this gathering in the woods.
Our goal is simple: continue to create those chance collisions for any who make the journey to Idyllwild in August.
We’ll see you next year.
We are more excited than ever to meet again in the mountains, and we are exploring early partnerships to make FEST bigger & better. Please drop a note to [email protected] to chat.
