The entrepreneurial spirit that fuels Boca Raton’s business landscape is alive and well—extending far beyond city limits and finding national recognition on one of today’s most talked-about startup shows. On July 31st at 7PM ET, Go Fund Yourself aired its 10th episode of Season 2 on Cheddar TV, showcasing two cutting-edge startups—MAGFAST and Limon Day Trips—each redefining their industries with technology, creativity, and scalability.
While these companies are not headquartered in South Florida, their stories resonate deeply with Boca’s thriving innovation community. Boca Raton continues to build its reputation as a hub for tech startups, venture funding, and thought leadership, with organizations like FAU Tech Runway, Boca Code, and TEDxBocaRaton helping entrepreneurs turn big ideas into thriving businesses. With Florida ranking among the top five states for startup activity and venture capital growth, it’s no surprise that shows like Go Fund Yourself have captured attention here.
MAGFAST: Disrupting the Charging Game
First to take the stage was Seymour Segnit, founder of MAGFAST, a fast-growing company transforming the $20+ billion global charging market. With sleek, magnetic, snap-together charging solutions, MAGFAST delivers both form and function. Its product ecosystem includes wireless power banks, USB-C cables, and next-generation ultra-fast chargers that bring devices from zero to full in under 25 minutes.
But what really impressed the Go Fund Yourself titans was MAGFAST’s customer traction: over $21 million in preorders and $10 million raised via NetCapital. That’s not just hype—it’s validation from a loyal, growing customer base.
“This isn’t just another gadget,” said one of the titans. “It’s a beautifully executed, scalable solution with real demand.”
With Segnit’s magnetic personality and a product that speaks to nearly every consumer, MAGFAST made a compelling case for becoming the next big name in smart tech accessories.
Limon Day Trips: Turning Local Travel Into Storytelling Gold
Next up were sibling co-founders Lili and Ray Montes, who introduced the world to Limon Day Trips, a travel-tech platform designed for audio-first exploration. Imagine hearing authentic, voice-recorded stories about hidden gems and day-trip experiences directly from locals and fellow travelers—that’s the Limon vision.
With roots in storytelling and a mission to make travel more personal, Limon offers a creative twist on discovery. Their pitch emphasized the platform’s community features, monetization options for content creators, and a Gen Z-friendly interface.
“The travel industry has needed something like this for a while,” said one titan. “It brings humanity back into the equation.”
As younger travelers shift away from big-box tourism and toward curated, experiential journeys, Limon could be poised to lead an entirely new category in travel content.
Why It Matters to Boca
The innovation seen on Go Fund Yourself mirrors the very ecosystem that has made Boca Raton a magnet for startups, venture groups, and tech entrepreneurs. The city’s legacy of innovation—dating back to the birthplace of the personal computer at IBM Boca—continues today through a new generation of founders shaping industries in charging tech, travel, AI, health, and more.
This episode reminds us that entrepreneurial thinking isn’t bound by geography—but Boca’s strong foundation makes it a key player in this national conversation.
