Our milestones

2020

BobaTalks started off as a small coffee-chat project for college students who had questions about career and life. It was an honest effort, to give back to the LinkedIn community of students who were trying to make sense of the world.

2022

Following the success of the calls and organic growth of the community, BobaTalks successfully converted into a non-profit organization, dedicating ourselves to helping students navigate their early career through mentorship and boba.
